“The future won’t be decided by the smartest individual or the most powerful institution—it will be decided by how well we connect across our divides. Linked reveals why our fates are intertwined, how social capital shapes our potential, and what it takes to build bridges in a broken world”
An expert explores the legacy of systemic racism in America. Drawing upon a wealth of data, the book makes a convincing argument for the ways that “flawed systems” (such as the endurance of race-based economic injustice) and “modes of thinking” (such as the model minority myth) contribute to the perpetuation of racial bias in American life…Stewart offers an accessible, proactive approach to understanding and addressing racism in order to “create a truly equitable and just society.”
