\nChapter 8: The Story We Tell
\nChapter 9: Creative Anger
\nInterlude: How to Survive Racism in an Organization that Claims to be Antiracist<\/p>\n

\u201cAnger is not inherently destructive. My anger can be a force for good. My anger can be creative and imaginative, seeing a better world that doesn\u2019t yet exist. It can fuel a righteous movement toward justice and freedom\u201d (Brown 126).<\/p>\n

Anger is an appropriate reaction to injustice, but Austin shares that she really struggled to become comfortable expressing that anger. How can we do a better job of listening to the anger of people of color? How can predominately white organizations make space to respond in supportive ways to the anger people of color express?<\/p>\n
