Book cover shows a black man carrying a black baby girl in a baby carrier on his front. The baby is wearing a green outit with animals. The title is written in blue.
Inside page shows the same two people from the cover at a protest. The man raises his fist in the air while looking at his baby. In the background are two middle-skinned women, a middle-skinned man, and a light-skinned man in a wheelchair. They all hold signs reading 'we demand justice, equity now, black lives matter, climate justice is racial justice'. The text reads 'Antiracist baby is bred, not born. Antiracist baby is raised to make society transform.'
Inside spread reads '1 open your eyes to all skin colours. Antiracist baby learns all the colours, not because race is true. If you claim to be colour-blind, you deny what's right in front of you.' The image shows a group of people walking in a park. An east asian family (mother, father, two children, one medium-skinned, one light-skinned), a Black family (a woman, baby and man with a dog) and a white man and child.
Page reads '9, believe we shall overcome racism. Antiracist baby is filled with the power to transcend, my friend. And doesn't judge a book by its cover, but reads until...The end.' A black baby girl lies underneath an oversized, tented book surrounded by flowers, the sun, a dog and two books. A black woman sits on top of one of the books and a white woman is at the bottom of a ladder leaning on the books.
