Stamped Racism, AntiRacism, and You
Stamped is a young-adult "remix" of a book about the United State's history of racism. We believe this book should be read in every English 9 class because it further educates students about the role racism plays in our country. It details how racism has been entwined in our country from the beginning and remains present today. Rather than just teaching about slavery this book offers a wider lens into racism's history and current role in our society. Please sign below if you're in support of making "Stamped Racism, Antiracism, and You" a reading requirement for all English 9 classes within the Boise School District.

The Boise School District board is still pretending the history in this book is optional or dangerous. They ignore us because they hope we will just get tired and quit. I am spending my time digging through their policy manuals to force a conversation they are desperate to avoid.

The Boise School District board is feeling the pressure now that our momentum has hit a boiling point. They want us to stay quiet and ignore the history detailed in this book but they cannot hide from us anymore.

This is such a good book, everyone in my class should read it.
Im down for this. Reading this book really opened my eyes.

Great idea. Kids need to learn this.
We need to talk about this stuff more. History class barely covers the real truth.
I am in support!
