This timely book unravels race and emotion in the workplace—exploring why racial emotion is often left out of equity conversations and why we must confront it.

Racial Emotion at Work is an invitation to understand our own emotions and associated behaviours around race—and much more. With this surprising and timely book, Tristin K. Green takes us beyond diversity trainings and other individualized solutions to discrimination and inequality in employment, calling for sweeping changes in how the law and work organisations treat and shape racial emotions.

Green provides readers with the latest research on racial emotions in interracial interactions and ties this research to thinking about discrimination and disadvantage at work. We see how our racial emotions can result in discrimination, and how our institutions—the law and work organisations—value and skew our racial emotions in ways that place the brunt of negative consequences on people of colour. It turns out we need to reset our institutional, and not just our personal, radars on racial emotion to advance racial justice. Racial Emotion at Work shows how we can rise to the task.

Praised by Jotwell for moving beyond common studies of implicit bias, this work argues for the recognition of racial emotions by courts and employers as vital to achieving fairer outcomes. Green's research is noted for its insightful contribution to understanding systemic subordination through the lens of racial emotions.
