"Lewis Raven Wallace has written an intimate text on how we really change, deep underneath it all. Through stories and study, Lewis guides us to shine light on our own beliefs and ideologies and those of our loved ones and communities. Give this book to everyone you love who is stuck in a heartbreaking worldview." --adrienne maree brown, author of Loving Corrections "Taught in universities and activist spaces around the nation, The View from Somewhere established Lewis Raven Wallace as one of the preeminent media thinkers of our time. With Wallace's signature style of inviting readers to ask questions along with them, Radical Learning allows readers to meditate upon how we might unlearn, in relationship with the people in our lives, the life lessons that separate us from one another. As it welcomes us to consider that what we unlearn is as important as what we learn, this urgently important book reads like a fiercely transgender, modern American companion to Paulo Freire's Pedagogy of the Oppressed ." --Steven W. Thrasher, author of The Viral Underclass: The Human Toll When Inequality and Disease Collide "How and why we change our beliefs is an essential question for our times. Radical Unlearning offers thoughtful and generous portraits of people who have changed their minds about important social and political issues. Beautifully written, engaging, introspective, and also outward facing, this book is one I will continue to return to, to better understand my fellow humans and myself for years to come." --Mariame Kaba, author of We Do This 'Til We Free Us, "Lewis Raven Wallace has written an intimate text on how we really change, deep underneath it all.

Synopsis
A road map for rewiring our brains to unlearn harmful beliefs, heal broken bonds, and transform our communities The beliefs that hold us back--inherited prejudices, self-limiting thoughts, destructive patterns--often feel permanent. But what if they're not? In Radical Unlearning , you'll learn about how neuroplasticity--the brain's ability to form new neural pathways--plays a key role in how we learn (and unlearn) behaviors and biases. Journalist and activist Lewis Raven Wallace likens the process to how footpaths are created by countless people walking the same route over years. We can choose to disrupt existing neural connections, to create new paths that lead to meaningful change. Weaving personal stories with scientific research, Wallace shows how anyone can break free from harmful patterns and beliefs, no matter how deeply ingrained. This book invites you to begin your own unlearning journey with practical exercises and reflection questions. It includes insights from people who have fundamentally changed their worldviews such as: A former white nationalist who is now a transgender anti-racist activist An ex-Israeli soldier who has transformed into a radical anti-Zionist advocate Wallace's own grandmother, who overcame decades of racism and transphobia in her 80s Our mental patterns don't just affect us--they shape how we treat others and form the foundation of larger social problems. Radical Unlearning is a road map for collective healing and growth, proof that transformation flourishes in community. With this book, you'll learn how to let go of harmful beliefs and practice new ways of thinking that foster connection, empathy, and justice., An accessible exploration into how we can use trauma psychology to unravel and transform our harmful beliefs.
