"This compact yet laudably wide-ranging book offers a thorough exploration of the contours of antiracist movements, policy proposals and arguments. Against sloganistic battle cries, Solomos grounds urgent debates in nuance and complexity, for a deeper account of the recent past, present and future of antiracism." David Roediger, author of The Wages of Whiteness: Race and the Making of the American Working Class "In Antiracism: A Critique , John Solomos wrangles tough questions to provoke a productive and needed conversation. Seeking to fill the knowledge and information gaps around antiracism, this work invites readers, scholars and global citizens to build a more inclusive academic environment and world." Marcus Anthony Hunter, author of Radical Reparations: Healing the Soul of a Nation "Antiracism is beleaguered, flailing between attacks on its legitimacy and co-optations by the institutions of colonial, racial states. At this time, as John Solomos argues in his important new book, Antiracism: A Critique , it is more important than ever to take antiracism seriously as an object of study." Alana Lentin, Ethnic and Racial Studies.
