How does race play a part? Is Britain still institutionally racist?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEducation remains the greatest indicator of life chances in Britain. What we study, where we study, and how long for shape all aspects of our lives. Our careers, our long-term health, our wealth and security are all moulded in the classroom. But who we are ultimately matters the most.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn Race and Education, Professor Kalwant Bhopal shows how race still determines who gains the best education in Britain, and who falls by the wayside. Through case studies, original research and interviews with students, teachers and academics alike, she reveals how the construction of privilege starts at a young age: with Whiteness taking some students on a gilded path from cradle to career, while many still struggle to build the futures they deserve. This book highlights how classrooms and lecture halls are at the centre of perpetuating White privilege - and how racism continues to exist in Britain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e'A timely and excellent book that makes clear the role racism continues to play in shaping education.

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.   From the backlash against #BlackLivesMatter to the rise of far-right governments denying the relevance of race altogether, this book dismantles the illusion of racial progress. Drawing on timely debates and grounded in empirical evidence, Bhopal reveals how race continues to shape access to power, opportunity and justice. Urgent and unflinching, this is essential reading for anyone interested in exposing the myth of a post-racial society.","brand":"Gardners","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56300176703861,"sku":"9781447372035","price":12.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}]}],"url":"https:\/\/backstory.london\/collections\/author-kalwant-bhopal.oembed","provider":"Backstory","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
