Amidst a searing critique of the university's neoliberal and imperial character, Joseph-Salisbury and Connelly position the university as a contested space, full of contradictions and tensions.\u003cbr\u003eDrawing upon original empirical data, the book explores how anti-racist scholar-activists navigate barriers and backlash to leverage the opportunities and resources of the university in service to communities of resistance. Showing the praxes of anti-racist scholar-activism to be complex, diverse, and multi-faceted, the book pays particular attention to how scholar-activists grapple with their own complicities in the harms perpetrated and perpetuated by Higher Education institutions.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis book serves as a call to arms for academics who are committed to social justice, urging them to engage in critical reflection and action to challenge the dominant narratives and structures that perpetuate racism and inequality in Higher Education. By advocating for a more inclusive and equitable academic environment, anti-racist scholar-activism aims to create a world where all students, regardless of race, ethnicity, or background, can thrive and contribute to society.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\\n                            \\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 198 x 129 (mm)\\n                            \u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781526157966\\n                            \\n                          \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Remi Joseph-Salisbury,Laura Connelly","offers":[{"title":"Paperback \/ softback","offer_id":44099527016698,"sku":"9781526157966","price":22.31,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/anti-racist-scholar-activism","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
