RMS Suggested Reading List
Race Relations and the Power of Words

The books on this list provide an opportunity to listen to the voices of others in our community. By listening to others' life stories, we build a greater sense of caring and build a better community.

“The longer we listen to one another - with real attention - the more commonality we will find in all our lives. That is, if we are careful to exchange with one another life stories and not simply opinions.” Barbara Deming
