BLACK BATWOMAN V. WHITE JESUS: and other essays from the anti-racism collection

Black Batwoman v. White Jesus is a collection of essays that provide deep dives on issues related to race, ethnicity, and society. The collection challenges ingrained and deep unconscious biases we have about each other. In particular, Kass enlightens readers on how we've all been fed a steady diet of false, negative and often misleading images and ideas about Black people, Jews, Muslims, and others. Most importantly, the collection provides a clear path to a better world. Taking from the phrase "social distancing" we used during COVID, Kass coined the phrase "End Racial Distancing," which he believes is part of our path to unwinding and erasing our unhealthy biases. 

"Jeffrey's unapologetic commitment to being comfortable with the discomfort of discussing racial and ethnic trauma in our country is refreshing and necessary."—Dr. Ryan Ross, educator, speaker, and community activist
