Keith Boykin’s new book presents 25 common claims used to deny racism in the US

New York Times–bestselling author Keith Boykin says racism is a distraction for Black and White people.

Boykin builds on the topic in his new book, “Why Does Everything Have to Be About Race? 25 Arguments That Won’t Go Away.”
