Kendi told a virtual audience of nearly 3,000 Wednesday night as the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rochester.edu\/\">University of Rochester<\/a> celebrated the 20th anniversary of the Martin Luther King Jr. Commemorative Address.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe very heartbeat of racism is denial,\u201d the best-selling author, antiracist activist, and Boston University professor said in an hour-long Zoom event. \u201cWhen people say they\u2019re not racist, they\u2019re sharing the words that white supremacists use. Jim Crow segregationists said they weren\u2019t racist. Lynchers argued they weren\u2019t racist; the problem was the people they lynched. Slave owners said the same thing.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut to be antiracist is to say \u2018that chokehold was racist and that policy that has impoverished that community was racist. When I supported it, I was being racist, but I\u2019m going to change it and be different.\u201d\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Kendi spoke with moderator Kristin Doughty, associate professor of anthropology, director of the University\u2019s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.sas.rochester.edu\/gsw\/\">Susan B. Anthony Institute for Gender, Sexuality and Women&#8217;s Studies<\/a>, and interim director of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sas.rochester.edu\/aas\/\">Frederick Douglass Institute.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Before the event, Kendi engaged in an online Q&amp;A with University student leaders.<\/p>\n<p>Kendi, named one of <a href=\"https:\/\/time.com\/collection\/100-most-influential-people-2020\/\"><em>Time <\/em>magazine\u2019s 100 most influential people of 2020<\/a>, is the Andrew W. Mellon Professor in the Humanities and the Founding Director of the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bu.edu\/antiracist-center\/\"><strong>Boston University Center for Antiracist Research<\/strong><\/a>. He won the 2016 National Book Award for nonfiction for\u00a0<em>Stamped from the Beginning: The Definitive History of Racist Ideas in America.\u00a0<\/em>His recent book,\u00a0<em>How to Be an Antiracist,<\/em>\u00a0was a\u00a0<em>New York Times<\/em>\u00a0bestseller this year and was described by the\u00a0<em>Times<\/em>\u00a0as \u201cthe most courageous book to date on the problem of race in the Western mind.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kendi\u2019s work has appeared in the\u00a0<em>New York Times, Washington Post, Time,<\/em>\u00a0and\u00a0<em>Salon<\/em>, and he is a guest commentator on CNN, ABC, CBS, MSNBC, NPR, and the BBC.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Kendi addresses police violence, COVID-19<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Kendi discussed two incidents involving Rochester police that made national news\u2014a 9-year-old girl who was handcuffed and pepper sprayed following a domestic disturbance, and the case of Daniel Prude, who died after being physically restrained by officers while he was experiencing a mental health crisis.<\/p>\n<p>The Prude situation hit home to Kendi. \u201cI don\u2019t know if I\u2019ve ever said this publicly, but that was devastating to me on multiple levels,\u201d he said. \u201cMy brother suffers from a mental disability. That could have been my brother. The fact that those officers were (not charged) because they were following procedure says everything that\u2019s wrong with those officers and procedure.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kendi also was distraught after watching video of the 9-year-old girl being pepper sprayed in the back seat of a police car. \u201cOne of the most horrific racist ideas, especially for parents of Black children, is to know that Black children are treated like adults and Black adults are treated like children. You know that police officers and society in general are not going to look at your 9-year-old and see a child.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Kendi said that when many activists talk about \u201cabolishing the police,\u201d they are actually talking about abolishing violence. \u201cIt\u2019s important to realize that the most dangerous racist idea is the idea of the dangerous Black neighbor,\u201d he said. \u201cAcross this country, there are all-Black neighborhoods with low levels of violent crime, just like there are all-neighborhoods with high levels. The distinction? Neighborhoods with low levels of violence have low levels of poverty and unemployment. All Black people need\u2014all anyone needs\u2014are resources and opportunities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>People of color in the United States have suffered a disproportionate number of deaths due to the coronavirus. In a perfect world, Kendi said, there would be racial demographic data to pinpoint the \u201chotspots of racial disparity\u201d in order to respond in real time.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat data from the beginning would have been critical,\u201d he said. \u201cBlack people are dying at the highest rate, not because of pre-existing conditions, but because they can\u2019t work from home. Essential workers, people working in the service industry, can\u2019t do that. And Black people die at higher rates because they don\u2019t have access to health insurance, and there are folks living in the highest levels of air and water pollution.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs we sit on the other side of 500,000 people dead from coronavirus when are we as a people going to take our lives seriously? The people who look like us and don\u2019t look like us?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The MLK address was instituted by the University in 2001 to promote issues of diversity, freedom, civil rights, and social justice in order to commemorate King\u2019s legacy.
