In Everything I Learned About Racism I Learned in School, Tiffany Jewell poignantly examines racism's widespread impact on American education. Jewell recounts her childhood and college experiences to show how systemic racism influences education. Jewell painstakingly deconstructs school prejudice via personal narrative and underrepresented authors' voices. Each example shows how black and brown students face systemic hurdles and microaggressions daily. The book inspires readers to explore racism and education critically. Jewell urges readers to examine their collaboration and advocate for serious change by demonstrating how educational institutions perpetuate and condone racism.

Everything I Learned About Racism I Learned in School illuminates the complex system of oppression that permeates education. It makes readers question racism and schooling and work to abolish systemic inequity. Jewell's work is topical and essential in today's global discussion on racial injustice. It sparks conversation and action by exposing educational inequities and encouraging readers to fight for a more equitable future.
