Description
How and why do those from black and minority ethnic communities continue to be marginalised? Despite claims that we now live in a post-racial society, race continues to disadvantage those from black and minority ethnic backgrounds.
In this fully revised and updated edition, White Privilege by Kalwant Bhopal explores how changing social, economic and political circumstances have increased, rather than decreased, racial discrimination in both the UK and USA.
Exploring the backlash against the #BlackLivesMatter movement, this book examines how far-right governments have produced a discourse that race is no longer a problem and we now live in a post-racial society.
Drawing on topical debates and supported by empirical data, this important book examines the impact of race on wider issues of inequality and difference in society.
