Ableism is embedded in our daily lives. Social life, education, work, and, especially, mental health have been organized around rigid ideas of the "ideal" and the "normal" citizen—ideas that always exclude neurodiversity.

Traversing temporalities and global boundaries, Racial Fictions reveals the inter-connectedness of America’s domestic racial struggles and international colonial ambitions.

Race isn’t real. But it changed the world. This book is the full history of how, and why, we made it up. From ancient tribal instincts to Enlightenment pseudoscience, from slavery and empire to redlining and algorithmic bias, Black and White walks through the invention of race as a system: where it started, how it spread, and why it still shapes everything. Biology didn’t create race. Power did. And the only way to dismantle the system is to understand how it was built. Brutal, clear, and global in scope, Black and White is a bullet through the myth and a blueprint for seeing through the lie.

In The Secrets of Silence, Shannon Malone Gonzalez investigates how the policing of black women is tied to the policing of their stories. Over a period of four years, Malone Gonzalez conducted intimate life-history interviews with black women about their encounters, listening to those who had never shared their stories before, had never even been asked to, or had tried repeatedly to speak to those around them to no avail. They all described the unspoken or whispered connections in the ways officers and communities socially control black women to put them "in their place."

This is her love for them poured out onto the pages, a document that traces her unspoken words on the journey to try and raise happy and healthy black son in America.

It is impossible to deny the impact of lies and white supremacy on the institutional conditions in US prisons. There is a particular power dynamic of racist intent in the prison system that culminates in what Brittany Friedman terms carceral apartheid.
