(Re)present Racism & resistance in Iowa
Book - 2024
A few powerful misconceptions about Iowa have long persisted, despite being inaccurate -- and even dangerous. These ideas show up in legislation, news coverage, and curriculum in schools, influencing what people believe about themselves and others and even justifying actions that perpetuate racism. (Re)present: Racism & Resistance in Iowa directly challenges these myths with intriguing stories from Iowa's past and present. Gathered together by a collective of historians, educators, organizers, and artists, this book examines Iowa's ethnoracial diversity, highlights the need for anti-racism to disrupt long-standing systemic racial oppression, and shows the power of mutual aid, self-determination, and solidarity to build communi...ties of care that are inclusive and racially just.
