Sophisticated Racism: Understanding and Managing the Complexity of
Everyday Racism adopts a fresh approach to the study of racism.
Victoria Showunmi and Carol Tomlin identify the prevalence of
sophisticated racism. They explore sophisticated and everyday
racism and how it manifests itself in society, particularly in the
workplace. Each chapter is self-contained yet relates to the whole
book so the reader can focus on a particular area of interest. The
authors narrate examples of everyday racism from the lived
experiences of Black women. They take the reader on a compelling
journey from the sources of racism through narratives of
disquieting racist events to the destination of affirming
approaches to preserving a sense of self and individual identity in
the face of sophisticated racism. An analysis of the interplay
between Black women and White women is integral to the book. The
authors explain how this originates in historical patterns of
behavior which emerged on the plantations during enslavement. The
term 'White women syndrome' has been coined to represent attempts
to defend the limited space for female success by denigrating and
excluding Black women. A unique feature of the book is that it
reaches beyond the historical context to the provision of
strategies for managing sophisticated and everyday racism in
contemporary society.
