Sefunmi Oladumiye's struggle with racism began at the age of 12.
That was when she found out she was black.
That was when she decided that she did not want to be black because she finally understood why some people were mistreating her.
The desire to not be black led her down a road of racist beliefs about black people and discrimination towards Blacks.
In DEALING WITH YOUR IMPLICIT RACISM, she chronicles her racist thought process and what eventually led her to reject the notion of black inferiority and to start to view Blacks in a non-racist light. She also explains where racism comes from and how it enters people, affecting their thoughts, beliefs, and actions.
Oladumiye makes the case that most black people and non-black anti-racism activists are also struggling with implicit racist beliefs about black people. DEALING WITH YOUR IMPLICIT RACISM outlines the techniques she used (and still uses) to combat her racist thinking and the successes she experienced in her fight.
