A Letter to My White Friends and Colleagues: What You Can Do Right Now to Help the Black Community
Rogers presents solutions for white Americans who want to actively help the Black community. Closing the $153,000 wage gap between white and Black citizens, he says, will improve race relations; and to do this, he offers practical tips such as supporting Black-owned businesses and banks and advocating for government reparations to descendants of enslaved people. Scholar and activist Cornel West says Rogers “makes us unsettled in order to get us to be real forces for good.”
