cover of the sum of us with child jumping off a diving boardChats for Change is an important part of Mount Sinai's dedication to addressing diversity, racism and bias. It is a series of dialogues "built on the notion that in order to respond to racism and be anti-racist we must engage in dialogue, learning, and action." For several upcoming Fall/Winter 2023-24 sessions, Chats for Change is discussing the book The Sum of Us: What Racism Costs Everyone and How We Can Prosper Together by Heather McGee. Several of our library staff have attended previous Chats for Change sessions, and we are committed to supporting learning in these series. When we saw that this book was going to be featured, we acquired an e-copy for the wider Mount Sinai community to read and learn from.

To access this e-book, click on this link, scroll down to "View Online", and click the "Ebook Central Perpetual, DDA, and Subscription Titles" link. You may be prompted to enter your Mount Sinai network ID and password to access it. Please note that due to licensing restrictions, only one user can read or download the e-book at a time.

This book, in print, e-book, and audiobook formats, is also available to request at NYC library branches. Clicking on these links will send you to that respective library's catalog:
