Book Club for Educators: Stamped, Part I

Although some insist America exists as a post-racial society, in his award-winning book Stamped from the Beginning: The Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America, Ibram X. Kendi argues this is not the case and examines the “dueling duality [of]…racial progress and the simultaneous progression of racism." In Stamped, Part I, join ALPLM staff as we discuss Kendi’s work and its applications to understanding and teaching the past and present.

The Book Club for Educators programs follow the format of PD in Your PJs, inviting you to come as you are, drink what you want, and chat about great books with your peers. This virtual event is free, but registration is required. All participants who read Stamped from the Beginning and attend the book club discussion will receive 9.0 CPDUs.

NOTE: On April 12, we will host Stamped, Part II -- an event that invites you to read and discuss one or both of Jason Reynolds’ remixes of Kendi’s work for youth, Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You and Stamped (For Kids): Racism, Antiracism, and You.
