American Hate: Survivors Speak Out

"“Hate comes in many forms,” Arjun Singh Sethi writes in American Hate, a collection of testimonials from survivors of hate crimes – mostly women and young people. Sethi proposes that to “move past hate,” we need the counsel of marginalized people and of the survivors themselves; community responses to their suffering contain the roots of hope and action. Read American Hate for the faces Sethi puts on our national epidemic of hatred. But read it as well for the antidote: We must understand and own our history. We must speak out, for in community is power and love."
