An adaptation of the young adult book Stamped by Jason Reynolds, which is a remix of Ibram x. Kendi's Stamped from the Beginning. The book is clear to say it is a present book but goes through history to trace roots and ramifications of racism in America (and the world). Looking at behaviors as segregationist, assimilationist, and antiracist and showing ways in which people can move between these behaviors at different times. Concise, accessible. The book uses pauses as a way to break the narrative to explain different concepts and ideas. A short, powerful read. Aremixed remix of a foundational text. Kendi’s Stamped From the Beginning (2016) is a crucial accounting of American history, rewritten and condensed for teens by Jason Reynolds as Stamped (2020). Educator Cherry-Paul takes the breadth of the first and the jaunty appeal of the second to spin a middle-grade version that manages to be both true to its forebears and yet all her own. She covers the same historical ground, starting with the origins of anti-Blackness and colonialism in medieval Europe, then taking readers through the founding of the U.S.A. and up to the present, with focuses on pivotal figures and pieces of pop culture. Cherry-Paul does an unparalleled job of presenting this complex information to younger readers, borrowing language from Reynolds’ remix (like the definitions of segregationists, assimilationists, and antiracists) and infusing it with her own interpretations, like the brilliant, powerful, haunting metaphor of rope woven throughout. “Rope can be a lifeline,” she says, and “rope can be a weapon….Rope can be used to tie, pull, hold, and lift.” Readers are encouraged to “Think about the way rope connects things. Now think about what racist ideas have been connected to so far: Skin color. Money. Religion. Land.” Baker’s stark portraiture paces the text and illustrates key players. Exhilarating, excellent, necessary. (timeline, glossary, further reading.) (Nonfiction. 10-14) -Kirkus Review Adapted From Stamped, a History of Race, Ibram X Kendi and Jason Reynolds, Stamped for Kids is an easy to understand history and current implications of race and racism in the United States. Talking in language that does not overwhelm, but is still honest, this book gives new comers into their Anti-Racist journey a chance to get the foundational knowledge they need to know what people are talking about, why they are talking about it, and what they can do to help. What I Liked: This book is what young people need. Many of the topics on race and racism are geared toward a young adult crowd, and many have intense descriptions of violence that may be unhelpful for a young person to work through when they are starting to understand race and racism. The book is still honest, does not create excuses, and provides a history and explanation that people need to know why this is still an issue. What I Missed: I would like to see more on intersectionality in this book. While it is touched on, I feel like the book would have benefited from talking about how girls and boys experience race differently- and lead into the conversation about gender. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
