Inequities still exist in today's society, and this book advances
awareness, an equitable mindset, and transformative change toward
the goal of eliminating inequities and promoting inclusiveness and
social justice. Racialized inequity is injustice or unfairness and
exists when prejudice or discrimination based on any aspect of
difference precludes access of certain groups to the resources and
benefits of society. This volume takes a new look at the psychology
of inequity today. Have we progressed or regressed since the height
of the civil rights movement of the 1960s? Through an examination
of the motivations and beliefs behind inequities and injustices,
this text aims to answer this question and any others that a
scholar or general reader interested in social inequities and
multiculturalism may have. Chapters address the motives that
sustain inequity and reflect on the beliefs and behaviors linked to
implicit responses to threats of change and loss of privilege posed
by the inclusion of "others." Includes cutting-edge scholarship
addressing racial inequities Provides contemporary examples of
racial inequity viewed through new psychological lenses Reviews the
intersection of racial, economic, and mental health inequity among
BIPOC citizens Addresses contemporary expressions of privilege and
their relationships to social inequities Introduces
transformational approaches to improving education and health care
