Summary:
"Short, emotional, literary, powerful - the book that all Americans who care about the current and long-burning crisis in race relations will want to read. As the country grapples with racist division at a level not seen since the 1960s, one man's voice soars above the rest with conviction and compassion. In his 2016 New York Times op-ed piece "Death in Black and
White
," Michael Eric Dyson moved a nation. Now he continues to speak out in
Tears
We
Cannot
Stop
- a provocative and deeply personal call for change. Dyson argues that if
we
are to make real racial progress
we
must face difficult truths, including being honest about how black grievance has been ignored, dismissed, or discounted. "The time is at hand for reckoning with the past, recognizing the truth of the present, and moving together to redeem the nation for our future. If
we
don't act now, if you don't address race immediately, there very well may be no future." Michael Eric Dyson is a professor of Sociology at Georgetown University, a contributing opinion writer for the New York Times, and the author of The Black presidency : Barack Obama and the politics of race in
America
. Ebony magazine named him one of the 100 Most Influential African Americans"--Provided by publisher.
