520    "How to Be Less Stupid About Race is your essential guide 
       to breaking through the half-truths and ridiculous 
       misconceptions that have thoroughly corrupted the way race
       is represented in the classroom, pop culture, media, and 
       politics. Centuries after our nation was founded on 
       genocide, settler colonialism, and slavery, many Americans
       are kinda-sorta-maybe waking up to the reality that our 
       racial politics are (still) garbage. But in the midst of 
       this reckoning, widespread denial and misunderstandings 
       about race persist, even as white supremacy and racial 
       injustice are more visible than ever before. Combining no-
       holds-barred social critique, humorous personal anecdotes,
       and analysis of the latest interdisciplinary scholarship 
       on systemic racism, sociologist Crystal M. Fleming 
       provides a fresh, accessible, and irreverent take on 
       everything that's wrong with our "national conversation 
       about race." Drawing upon critical race theory, as well as
       her own experiences as a queer black millennial college 
       professor and researcher, Fleming unveils how systemic 
       racism exposes us all to racial ignorance--and provides a 
       road map for transforming our knowledge into concrete 
       social change. Searing, sobering, and urgently needed, How
       to Be Less Stupid About Race is a truth bomb and call to 
       action for everyone who wants to challenge white supremacy
       and intersectional oppression. If you like Issa Rae, 
       Justin Simien, Angela Davis, and Morgan Jerkins, then this
       deeply relevant, bold, and incisive book is for you."--
