Over 50,000 copies sold of earlier editions! Powerful strategies
and practical tools for white people committed to racial justice
Completely revised and updated, this fourth edition of Uprooting
Racism offers a framework around neoliberalism and interpersonal,
institutional, and cultural racism, along with stories of
resistance and white solidarity. It provides practical tools and
advice on how white people can work as allies for racial justice,
engaging the reader through questions, exercises, and suggestions
for action, and includes a wealth of information about specific
cultural groups such as Muslims, people with mixed heritage, Native
Americans, Jews, recent immigrants, Asian Americans, and Latino/as.
Inequalities in education, housing, health care, and the job market
continue to prevail, while increased insecurity and fear have led
to an epidemic of scapegoating and harassment of people of color.
Yet, recent polls show that only thirty-one percent of white people
in the United States believe racism is a major societal problem; at
the same time, resistance is strong, as highlighted by indigenous
struggles for land and sovereignty and the Movement for Black
Lives. Previous editions of Uprooting Racism have sold more than
50,000 copies. This accessible, personal, supportive, and practical
guide is ideal for students, community activists, teachers, youth
workers, and anyone interested in issues of diversity,
multiculturalism, and social justice. Paul Kivel is an
award-winning author and an accomplished trainer and speaker. He
has been a social justice activist, a nationally and
internationally recognized anti-racism educator, and an innovative
leader in violence prevention for over forty years.
