This book underscores the importance of moving beyond lip service
or hollow platitudes to mobilize and expand the capacity of social
justice movements to foster policy change and incubate new programs
at the local, state, and federal levels. In the wake of global
protests spurred by acts of police brutality in the United States,
present-day problematic policing and racial injustice in Black and
Brown communities surged to the forefront of political discourse in
recent years. Institutionalized backlash politics, which emerged
during the post-Civil Rights era, perpetuated and further
exacerbated generations-long racial disparities and stymied
systemic change. This edited volume describes pilot programs and
community-based initiatives that show promise as tools for equity
and racial justice in Black and Brown communities. This book will
be of great value to scholars and academics interested in racism,
justice, community development and social work. The chapters in
this book were originally published in the Journal of Community
Practice.
