Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

Synopsis
The Essential Guide to Stopping Hate Speech
Being a good ally requires more than thoughts and prayers. It also means challenging accusations, assumptions, and stereotypes targeting Black people, Asian People, Jewish People, LGBTQ People, Mexican People, Muslims, and Tribespeople, because hate speech ultimately justifies hate crimes.
Here's how it works...
You're online and someone posts a comment that attacks a group of people. You're at a loss for words. You consider disowning or blocking them but decide to be a good ally instead and reach for this book. Mission accomplished
You're at a family gathering with your kids. Suddenly, Uncle Frank lets rip about the color or religion of the people who've just moved to his neighborhood. You don't want your kids to think that kind of talk is acceptable. You say one of the replies in this book. Great parenting.
You're on a coffee break at work. Karen from accounts joins you. You both love tennis and chat about catching Wimbledon highlights. Serena Williams is about to win her 75th title. Karen confides, 'Black people are only good at sports.'. Your coffee break is ruined. What will you say to make sure Karen knows you're a good ally? You'll use one of the replies in this book. Ace.
You're having lunch with a friend. He looks out the window and sees a trans person walk by. He says, 'Look at that man who thinks he's a woman. He's mentally ill.' Last night, you finished the chapter in this book about LGBTQ people, and politely inform him that both the American Medical Association and the American Psychiatric Association do not consider being transgender a mental disorder. Well done.
You grew up in a racist society and suspect you have racist beliefs. As an act of self-love, you want to weed your mental garden of hate and lies. With this book, your bigoted mindset will be a thing of the past and your heart will overflow with compassion and tolerance for others. Beautiful.
Whoever you are, if you want to be a good ally THIS BOOK IS REQUIRED READING
