A Reading Guide for White People

So you just realized that we're a nation with a crapton of unresolved issues that still plague whole populations of people to this day? You might be asking yourself: "What can I do?"
This is a question that people ask me (MYA NUNNALLY) often (though not often enough) about how they can help combat racial inequality. While the answer varies depending on who you talk to, a central component always seems to be "educate yourself." Books about race are usually well-researched, powerful tools in the war against racism.
What follows is a collection of just some of the works that offer enlightenment in the complex world of racial issues. And it also has limits, being primarily focused on American authors and issues. So, remember that this is just a starting point for one's racial education.
