An inappropriate comment drops during your team meeting. What happens next depends on who's in that room. Allies stand by. Accomplices take action. Which one are you?

Seena Hodges has spent decades watching smart, well-meaning leaders and organizations fail this exact test. She wrote this book for everyone who's ever sat frozen in that moment to help them dig into the difficult work of becoming the best, most understanding, and empathetic versions of themselves.

Through personal reflections, real-life examples, data-driven strategies, a framework based on engagement and accountability, and coaching questions at the end of every chapter, you'll develop the confidence to move to action to:

leverage privilege positions to challenge norms and create inclusive environments,

engage in difficult conversations and listen to diverse lived experiences and perspectives,

reflect on language, ways to show up, and the role that organizations play,

increase self-awareness around issues of race and racial injustice, and

develop an antiracist lens
