"With the racism of poverty and state violence deepening relentlessly in Britain, new generations have responded, drawing on the legacies of their predecessors to create new forms of antiracist struggle. A World Without Racism is an essential guide to this work and the possible futures it beckons." Arun Kundnani, author of What is Anti-Racism? And Why it Means Anti-Capitalism
"Reviving the fierce tradition of transnationalism and practices of global solidarity that were core to grassroots anti-racist movements in the 1970s & 1980s, A World Without Racism brings together key anti-racist scholars and organisers from a new generation to examine the operation of race and racism in our current political conjuncture. It exposes the productive tensions that can drive our political demands and formations, it invites us, to think again about what is to be done." Lola Olufemi, author of Feminism, Interrupted: Disrupting Power
