How widespread is racism? Is it confined to the high-profile acts we read about in the papers, or does it seep into our everyday actions? In Say It Loud, Annie Barnes has interviewed nearly 200 black men and women, mostly college students from middle-class families, to find out what their experiences of racism have been.

Barnes adds to their accounts some simple yet profound ideas on what black parents and young people -- and sympathetic whites as well -- can do personally to counter acts of racism.
