Anti-racist scholar-activism raises urgent questions about the role
of contemporary universities and the academics that work within
them. As profound socio-racial crises collide with mass anti-racist
mobilisations, this book focuses on the praxes of academics working
within, and against, their institutions in pursuit of anti-racist
social justice. Amidst a searing critique of the university's
neoliberal and imperial character, Joseph-Salisbury and Connelly
situate the university as a contested space, full of contradictions
and tensions. Drawing upon original empirical data, the book
considers how anti-racist scholar-activists navigate barriers and
backlash in order to leverage the opportunities and resources of
the university in service to communities of resistance. Showing
praxes of anti-racist scholar-activism to be complex, diverse, and
multi-faceted, and paying particular attention to how
scholar-activists grapple with their own complicities in the harms
perpetrated and perpetuated by Higher Education institutions, this
book is a call to arms for academics who are, or want to be,
committed to social justice. -- .
