I’m Still Here: Black Dignity in a World Made for Whiteness

Austin Channing Brown’s first encounter with American racism occurred at the age of seven, when she found out that she was given her birth name to trick future employers into thinking she was a white man. Growing up in majority-white schools and neighbourhoods, Austin ‘had to learn what it means to love Blackness,’ a journey that led her to become a writer and a speaker who helps organisations practice genuine inclusion. In this bestselling memoir, she writes beautifully and powerfully about her journey to self-worth and how all of us can contribute to racial justice.

“A deeply personal account of fighting social injustice and racism. I love how inspiring this is and how much hope the author employs throughout the course of the book, even though parts of it are quite bleak.”
