    For Your Learning Friday: How to Be an Antiracist: Resources for leading discussions

    Ibram X. Kendi, author of How to Be an Antiracist, will join us for Learn Serve Lead the AAMC’s virtual annual meeting in November. His book is often cited as a crucial read on the complex issue of racism. If this is a book that you, your colleagues, or your book club members are reading, we recommend these discussion questions as a way to prompt thoughtful conversation.

    Thanks so much, Chris, for sharing the suggested read and supplementary resources. At the Medical College of Wisconsin, we also recommended this as a must-read for our faculty, staff, and students. How to Be an Antiracist is an excellent work that helps all who turn its pages gain a better sense of the issue at hand and the imperative for change.
