After Chain of Ideas
The Sum of Us by Heather McGhee
If Chain of Ideas gave you conceptual tools to dismantle systemic racism, McGhee's The Sum of Us delivers the economic proof and persuasion strategies to convert skeptics in real time. She weaponizes data to show racism isn't just unjust—it's expensive for everyone—then hands you fresh case studies and concrete civic models to build multiracial power. This is the activist handbook you've been waiting for: urgent, quotable, and built to move from reading to action.
