IN-PERSON: Book Launch: "Understanding and Managing Sophisticated and Everyday Racism"

This event is sponsored by UCL, the Sarah Parker Remond Centre and 100 Black Men of London

'Understanding and Managing Sophisticated and Everyday Racism is essential reading. At once confronting, tender and sophisticated, the book centers Black women's lived experiences in a manner that critiques both national policy and every racism.

This book is beautifully written, with Victoria Showunmi and Carol Tomlin sharing personal trauma and triumph while at the same time offering insights that researchers, policy makers and everyday people seeking better understanding of race, racism and race relations will find helpful'.

- Jeffery S. Brooks, Head of School, Curtin University School of Education.
