Khalil, a young Black boy, starts at a new school and is excited to join the basketball team--until he begins to experience and witnesses subtle and not-so-subtle forms of racism among his new teammates. Khalil struggles with how to react and stand up for himself and others against his new friends who have taken him in.
Kevin heronJones has written this book to reflect his and other young Black people's experiences with racism in school. Not Talking About You portrays racism as it occurs amongst young people today and explores the impact on the target and bystanders who have to decide how to react when they find racist youth in their midst.
