HOW TO BE A (YOUNG) ANTIRACIST

Groundbreaking, award-winning authors and activists Ibram X. Kendi and Nic Stone do an excellent job of narrating this adaptation of Kendi's seminal work for young people. With poignancy, personal stories, and an insightful understanding of teens and preteens, they cover challenging topics that affect every one of us today, such as privilege, systemic racism, justice movements, and police violence. Lending their own voices to the work enhances the listening experience. Kendi's rich baritone and Stone's clear alto provide enough variety, and their experience in narration comes through with the easy flow of speech and varied pitches. Stone's many "Nic Notes" bring further variety and a fresh perspective throughout the work. C.F. © AudioFile 2023, Portland, Maine [Published: MAY 2023]
