Anti-Racist Practice

This newly expanded and updated edition of Anti-Racism for Beginners offers guidance for engagement with anti-racism and anti-racist practices in interdisciplinary areas, from social work, healthcare and youth and community work through to business management.

A range of frameworks, based on theoretical understanding and practical guidance, prompts critical thinking, encourages meaningful conversations and enables readers to play an active and positive part in promoting anti-racism. The concepts of intersectionality and allyship are central themes throughout the book and aid in tackling discrimination and oppression. Key points, practice examples and exercises allow for the integration of theory and practice.

An ideal resource for managers, practitioners and students in social work and social care, healthcare, probation, police work, counselling, education and related areas.
