Journeys of Race, Color, & Culture: From Racial Inequality to Equity & Inclusion

By Rick Huntley, Rianna Moore, and Carol Pierce

Journeys of Race, Color and Culture explores People of Color and White People in the United States at the intergroup and whole system levels and offers a path to effectively dialogue between the racial and cultural identity groups. Whiteness is deconstructed, power dynamics reconstructed, and skills for dialogue made accessible to all.

This book supports those who seek to:

• Understand the cultural status quo in terms of societal racial power dynamics
• Develop greater awareness and understanding of their own racial identity
• Undo racism in themselves and in their spheres of influence
• Participate in authentic dialogue across race difference

The authors are educators, coaches, and organization development practitioners who specialize in diversity-inclusion, culture change, and leadership development. They seek to heal wounds in the psyches of individuals, the strains in interpersonal and intergroup relations across race differences, and the social fabric of the nation and its institutions, all of which are the legacy of racism. They believe in walking the talk, doing the work, and being the change. The search for race and culture equity is part of the larger struggle for recognition, acceptance, and respect for humankind in all its multiplicity. Highly readable and graphically documented.
