Titilayo Farukuoye - Böcker

School teaches us the myth of Black apathy, savagery, and helplessness, that slavery was inevitable, and that Black people have little power to resist and overcome its consequences. But We Did lays out this idea for what it is: a well-rehearsed lie exchanging snug high-fives with white supremacy. Bringing forth resistance histories that have conveniently been left out and deconstructing the impact misinformation and racist narratives have on society, particularly Black youths, Farukuoye takes readers beyond merely understanding the horrors of slavery and offers tools to challenge these narratives confidently in our own sphere of influence – be it at the dinner table, work, school, with friends or as part of an organisation. But We Did engages in the collective challenge of undoing colonialist systems and imagining a society free of its legacies.
