Aesthetic Realism
and the Answer to Racism
|
Alice
Bernstein is editor and one of the authors of a book which will
be seen as a classic. It educates deeply and is one of the big reasons
that one day we will be able to say: Racism has been defeated. Aesthetic
Realism and the Answer to Racism, writes Ms. Bernstein, " is being
published with a sense of urgency and hope; urgency because racism is still
rampant in the world; hope, because there is a true, practical,
kind, learnable, and yes, even beautiful answer."
Alice Bernstein's book contains articles published nationwide, including Eli Siegel's fundamental work, "The Equality of Man" of 1923. I am glad to say my essay "An Anthropologist Speaks about Race" and two others are in the company of these definitive resources. Some of the essays by Ms. Bernstein and others are: "Two Poems by Eli Siegel about Martin Luther King and America"; "Young and Old Learn Answer to Racism at Brooklyn Children's Museum"; "Congressman Elijah E. Cummings: A True Representative;" "Brown vs. Board of Education: What Interferes with Justice?" by Alice Bernstein.

More Anti-Racism Resources:
What Alice Bernstein and I regard as the most powerful and deeply truthful writing on racism has been done by Ellen Reiss and other persons who understand the cause of this ugly disposition in humanity and know how it can be stopped: knowledge that is in Aesthetic Realism alone. See the page titled " How Aesthetic Realism Opposes Racism." The practical and deep articles on the Web include, too, "On Racism & How to End It" by Nancy Huntting; Allan Michael's "It Is In Contempt That the Root of Racism Lies"; Alice Bernstein's "Poems by Eli Siegel about Martin Luther King and America" and the book she edited: Aesthetic Realism and the Answer to Racism. Other articles include, "The Genome & Equality"; "Words, Truth, & the Confederate Flag"; "Fascism, Understood At Last!"; "Aesthetic Realism: The Solution to Racism"; "Contempt, the Cause of Racism"; "Queen's Visit to Amritsar" by Christopher Balchin. And articles by New York teachers who show how the standard curriculum, K-12, can be used to encourage kindness include: "Prejudice Changes to Respect" and "Students Learn, Prejudice Is Defeated!." |
