Richard Rothstein’s The Color of Law was a MAP Reads pick in 2020, and he was a keynote speaker at the Planning Michigan conference in 2020.
Members have asked that we include his newest book, Just Action: How to Challenge Segregation Enacted Under the Color of Law, coauthored with his daughter Leah Rothstein, as a MAP Reads title, and we heard you, and we are taking it statewide.
“The Color of Law brilliantly demonstrated the brutal decisions that separated us. Just Action answers the question, “What can we now do to change?” While federal policies are mired in polarization, this very hopeful new book raises a myriad of ethical choices and suggests concrete policy decisions that can transform our lives, our country, and our sense of community.”
— Jim Wallis, director of Georgetown University’s Center on Faith and Justice
