No Innocent Bystanders: Becoming an Ally in the Struggle for Justice by Shannon Craigo-Snell & Christopher J. Doucot, 2017: The struggle for justice is ongoing.

It explains what allies legitimately can accomplish, what they can’t, and what kind of humility and clarity is required to tell the difference.
