And who truly benefits when we allow fear of the other to steer our society?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThrough charming banter and illuminating anecdotes from their personal lives, artist Nick Abadzis and psychotherapist Angela Watson chronicle their nearly forty-year interracial relationship, their respective family histories, and their ongoing experiences with anti-Black racism in Britain and America. They explore everything from the overt racial taunts of childhood bullies to the more subtle biases of the adult workplace.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn the midst of a dangerous political backlash that threatens to derail decades—if not centuries—of movement towards a more equitable and diverse world, \u003cem\u003eMy Beloved Other\u003c\/em\u003e puts questions of race front and centre, and turns a critical eye to the systems that seek to exploit our differences. Above all else, it challenges readers to do what can sometimes feel impossible: keep hope alive for a future where difference is embraced as a source of unity, not division.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Macmillan Publishers New Zealand Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67598822998252,"sku":"9781596433700","price":72.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781596433700-my-beloved-other-1.jpg?v=1790724393","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/my-beloved-other-by-nick-abadzis-9781596433700","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
