Speaking about his new book:
Fire in the Heart:
How White Activists Embrace Racial Justice
Fire in the Heart reveals how white Americans can develop a commitment to racial justice, not just because it is the right thing to do, but because they embrace the cause as their own. Based on in-depth interviews with 50 white activists from across the country, the book brings to light the perspectives of white people who are working to build not a post-racial America but the foundations for a truly multiracial America rooted in a caring community with equity and justice at its core.
