Evil Aliens with Afros: My lived
experience with systematic racism in the 21st century. Kindle Edition
by
In this compelling
first-person account, Daniel Joseph explores systematic racism in the 21st
century. From the impact of the wealth gap that exists between black and white
people, to the interaction between black lives and the blue line. Reliving his
experiences, including being called "Evil Aliens with Afros" in his
youth, Joseph examines the overwhelming effects of racism throughout his, and
his father's generation. Referring to the misinformation and fear of black
people in the generations leading up to the early-90s, racial stereotyping has
been put on trial as the most significant actor in the collective behaviour of
negativity towards black people. However, offering some hope for a better
future, Joseph reflects on the lessons learned over the years, how to fight for
racial equality, and what we can do to engage more collaboratively.
