Love, Race, and Liberation.pdf (PDF document 232Kb)

The title of this guide gives a nod to one of the greatest poets of the Twentieth Century. ‘Til the White Day is Done is a line from the 1926 poem Dream Variations by Langston Hughes. ‘Til the White Day Is Done represents a commitment to end oppression in all forms- to eliminate the current “White Day.” White people are the world’s minority, yet white supremacy and racism are the scaffolding on which the American political and socioeconomic systems are built. This book adds the new millennium piece of making sure the important elements of love and liberation are included in all conversations about race.
