Race isn’t real. But it changed the world. This book is the full history of how, and why, we made it up. From ancient tribal instincts to Enlightenment pseudoscience, from slavery and empire to redlining and algorithmic bias, Black and White walks through the invention of race as a system: where it started, how it spread, and why it still shapes everything. Biology didn’t create race. Power did. And the only way to dismantle the system is to understand how it was built. Brutal, clear, and global in scope, Black and White is a bullet through the myth and a blueprint for seeing through the lie.

Using colorful descriptions of his experiences - dining with Vladimir Putin at his country home, taking a group of Felipe Calderon’s advisors on their first Mexico City subway ride, touring a beautiful new government hospital in Afghanistan that nobody would use because it was in Taliban-controlled territory - he tells how he began finding answers to that question.
