The myth of a post-racial society
Description Why do racial inequalities persist, and in some cases deepen, in an era that claims to be ‘post-racial’? Despite popular narratives of progress, Black and minority ethnic communities continue to face systemic disadvantage. In this fully revised and updated edition, Kalwant Bhopal uncovers how shifting social, political and economic landscapes in both the UK and US have not only failed to reduce racial discrimination but instead have intensified it.

Smith College Alums Demand Whistleblower Jodi Shaw Undergo More White Privilege "Training" to "Safely Interact With Students"
After Jodi Shaw exposed Critical Race training at Smith College, an alumni Open Letter asserts that Shaw’s “deep preoccupation with disavowing the idea of White privilege, is indeed in need of further training before she can safely interact with students and fellow staff in the course of her employment.” On November 23, 2020, Jodi Shaw, the whistleblower alumna and Student Support Coordinator of Smith College, who has asked the college to stop reducing her “personhood to a racial category”,...
Story of Smith College "Critical Race Theory" Whistleblower Jodi Shaw Goes National
Posted by Leah M. Baldacci, Esq. Tuesday, November 10, 2020 at 5:30pm | 11/10/2020 - 5:30pm Two weeks ago, we reported on Jodi Shaw, the whistleblower from Smith College who called out Smith College for offensive and abusive Critical Race Theory indoctrination for staff. Now the story has gone national.
"Stop reducing my personhood to a racial category"
Staff member Jodi Shaw: “Stop demanding that I admit to White Privilege and work on my so-called Implicit Bias as a condition of my continued employment.” Smith College is a very leftist women’s college in central Massachusetts.
“Transracial” is not the new “Transgender”: Why Race and Gender Are Not Synonymous.
Back in 2015, Rachel Dolezal, a fully caucasian woman who had been pretending to be black for years, ‘came out’ publicly as ‘transracial’. With a completely straight face, the woman who had grown up with blonde hair, white skin and freckles said to the Today Show host ‘I identify as black’. Since the scandal, a whole host of other ‘transracial’ people have been coming out of the woodworks.
Anti-Racism in (white) Mountain Towns
Over the past few weeks, I have been searching for the article I, since unable to find, am now sitting down to write. It is an article for others who, like me, live in small towns most come to for vacations. It is an effort at building a bridge between those of us who live in mountain towns and the revolution happening (in cities). I am writing with both humility and urgency.
The Devastation Experienced by Not Feeling Heard
People of color have been talking. It’s time they were finally heard. Photo credit: Shutterstock By Lesli Doares I wish I could be surprised by the escalations in last week’s protest events. One look at the way the police in most of the cities deployed and I could predict the outcome. It’s simply the same result I have witnessed countless times with the couples I’ve worked with, only writ large. If you come to an interaction prepared for conflict, I guarantee you will find it.
Seeing the World Through the Eyes of Others
Abraham: Imagining a new world Photo credit: Shutterstock By Derek Penwell I remember after class one time in graduate school at U of L, two of my female classmates approached me to ask if I were going to the parking garage, and if so, could they walk with me. I said, “Of course.” The class got out well after dark, and the parking garage was across campus. So we walked together in the dark. When we got to the parking garage, I walked both my friends to their cars, waiting until they drove off.
Anti-racist reading list for designers
Photo by Ehimetalor Akhere Unuabona on Unsplash As designers, we preach empathy, inclusion, and accessibility, yet like most of tech, the industry is 71% White. Knowing it is impossible to be unbiased, how are we supposed to be user-centric when the overwhelming majority of our colleagues look the same? My aim for this list is to begin a dialogue challenging our own privilege, biases, and assumptions as designers. I don’t pretend to have answers and know this is just a single step.
To White People, When a POC Points Out Your Privilege, Asks You to Stop, and You Feel Hella Defensive:
Best just to keep quiet, feel the burn, and pray for the knowledge and strength to understand and belong to this crazy world you secretly fear you have no place in.
My Challenge to White People This Week and Beyond
Inaction and silence are layers of this cycle of oppression. It takes strength and courage to educate oneself on things outside of your comfort zone. Photo credit: Shutterstock By Pete Cataldo It’s time to end this fallacy that if you aren’t wearing hoods or Swastikas and using the “n-word with hard-R,” it means you are absolved from the many layers of prejudice. Unfortunately, it’s much deeper and much more complex; and all of us have a role.
Police Brutality from the Perspective of a Black Person
It shouldn’t be about perspective. Photo credit: iStockPhoto By Dyanne Brown At first, I was resistant to watching the video. I have seen so many videos of people who looked like me being gunned down or attacked that I already knew the pain that it would stir up. I also knew the disappointment that would follow when there was no truth revealed and no resolution. And, I wanted to avoid the anger and grief that I would feel in the days to follow. But, I had to watch it.
Radio Raheem
Things haven’t changed at all. Photo Credit: By Jeff Cann For me, it started with Radio Raheem. 1989: At twenty-seven I wasn’t woke. We didn’t use that term then, which is fine with me because I find it beyond annoying. Better adjectives for me included immature, self-absorbed, sheltered, suburban. In 1988, I moved into Washington, DC. Not into what would be considered a nice neighborhood. My friends and I bargain hunted. We found a stately house to rent for a great price. We were gentrifiers.
Trump’s Enablers Commit Racism by Collusion and Default at the Very Least
The racist want to be dictator and the absurdities of his supporters. Photo credit: Shutterstock By Warren Blumenfeld A former student whom I had not seen for the past seven years surprised me recently with a very welcomed Zoom chat. The student, whom I will call “Simon” in the service of anonymity, is a young white man who was enrolled in a graduate course I taught focusing on topics in Social Justice Education.
The Skin I’m In
Would my complexion get in the way of my ability to thrive in “the land of the free”? Photo credit: Shutterstock By Paul Marsh Fear is one of the most profound emotions an individual can experience. It has the power to ruin lives, livelihoods, or an individual’s ability to thrive. It causes people to lash out, act out, or make irrational choices in the name of self-defense and protection.
Prolific Racism Needs Complicit White People
White Americans need to reckon with the reality. Photo credit: iStock By John Pavlovitz Racism is a prolific killer. We’re seeing that right now. It is entrepreneurial in its malice and it will use whatever means necessary to eliminate those it is threatened by and fearful of. The breadth of its arsenal and the scope of its tactics are staggering. It will execute young black men in the street and it will assassinate their character on social media.
Blue America
It’s not black and white; it’s blue. Photo Credit: Shutterstock By Andrew Cotto Everybody’s talking black and white, but I’m thinking more about blue. Black folks invented the Blues. This music is one of America’s most enduring and celebrated art forms, yet its origins should not be forgotten as it derives from the oppression people of African descent have experienced throughout their history in America.

Schade This the first in a series of posts highlighting four authors from Rooted and Rising: Voices of Courage in a Time of Climate Crisis (Rowman & Littlefield, 2019).

I’m Living as a 1950s Housewife But It’s Not JUST to Escape Examining My White Privilege.
It’s ALSO a Sex Thing. This isn’t the only hard wood I’ll be polishing tonight. (wink) Let me ask you a question only white people like me can comfortably ask for fun: Have you ever felt like you were born in the wrong time? Perhaps one where men were men and women weren’t people? Where “old-fashioned values” meant being able to discriminate on the basis of race, religion, sexual orientation, gender, disability, and/or age without facing any real legal or societal consequences? I definitely have.

Megan Thee Stallion Scorches Paper Magazine
Megan Thee Stallion has been scorching the music scene of late, so it’s only fitting that she brings the heat (au naturale) to Paper Magazine.

Array Together with companion India, he went on to place third on the ITV2 show’s finale.

What Toni Morrison Taught Me About Racism in Her Book ‘Beloved’ August 6, 2019 Leah D. Schade Toni Morrison has just died at the age of 88. Here’s why her book Beloved helped form me as a Christian confronting my own racism and constructing my understanding of public theology. When I was a PhD student at the Lutheran Theological Seminary in Philadelphia, Toni Morrison’s book Beloved was on the reading list for the Public Theology portion of my program.
Twitter Blasts Esquire’s Tone-Deaf White ‘American Boy’ Cover Story
Written By NewsOne Staff Posted 41 mins ago Another example of what happens when no Black or brown people are in the room but a media outlet still decides to tackle race and culture — Esquire’s latest issue. The cover has a photo of 17-year-old high school senior Ryan Morgan who is from West Bend, Wisconsin on their March 2019 issue of Esquire.
Hi, I’m Leah. I’m a Recovering Racist.
Hi, I’m Leah. I’m a Recovering Racist. January 19, 2019 Leah D. Schade I need to share what part I play in this country’s racism and white supremacy. It is not up to people of color to instruct us. It’s up to us as whitefolks to engage in this work and do it now. So I need to say it: I’m a recovering racist. What do I mean by saying I’m a recovering racist?
White Privilege, By Kalwant Bhopal
Why and how do those from black and minority ethnic communities continue to be marginalised? Despite claims that we now live in a post-racial society, race continues to disadvantage those from black and minority ethnic backgrounds. Kalwant Bhopal explores how neoliberal policy making has increased rather than decreased discrimination faced by those from non-white backgrounds.

What Chris Christie fat jokes teach your fat friend.
Time Magazine’s 2013 cover story on Chris Christie. I can’t remember the first time I heard a fat joke about a public figure. From Al Sharpton to Rush Limbaugh, Kirstie Alley to Mo’nique, growing up in the nineties meant seeing bodies like mine ridiculed regularly and publicly. If a fat person did anything someone else found objectionable, the leading critique was likely to be one of their body — not their actions. A lot has changed since then, but last week, it felt like so little had.
America’s Original Sin: Slavery Never Ended, It Just Evolved
Sometimes, it seems that African-Americans are the only people willing to talk about race in an effort to improve relations and social justice. Author and Christian activist Jim Wallis joined Roland Martin on NewsOne Now to discuss his new book, America’s Original Sin: Racism, White Privilege and the Bridge to a New America.
Progressive Professor Urges White Male Students to Commit Suicide During Class
By Ivan Fernando “If you are a white male, you don’t deserve to live. You are a cancer, you’re a disease, white males have never contributed anything positive to the world! They only murder, exploit and oppress non-whites! At least a white woman can have sex with a black man and make a brown baby but what can a white male do? He’s good for nothing.
The Great Oberlin College Racism Hoax of 2013
A massive racism hoax took place at Oberlin College in February 2013 in which two students made seemingly racist, anti-Semitic and other such posters, graffiti and emails for the purpose of getting a reaction on campus, not because they believed the hostile messages. At least one of the two was an Obama supporter with strong progressive, anti-racist politics.
