It challenges the neoliberal and imperial nature of institutions and calls for academics to work towards anti-racist social justice. The book provides empirical data on the experiences of anti-racist scholar-activists and explores how they navigate barriers and backlash to leverage university resources for communities of resistance. It emphasizes the complexity, diversity, and multi-faceted nature of scholar-activism and highlights the need for academics to confront their own complicities in perpetuating harm. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 280 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 30 November 2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRaising urgent questions about the role of contemporary universities and the academics that work within them, anti-racist scholar-activism delves into the complex dynamics of academics navigating within and against their institutions in pursuit of anti-racist social justice. Amidst a searing critique of the university's neoliberal and imperial character, Joseph-Salisbury and Connelly position the university as a contested space, teeming with contradictions and tensions.\u003cbr\u003e\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. This book serves as a call to arms for academics who are committed to social justice, particularly relevant to United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 4, Quality education.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 198 x 129 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781526157959\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Remi Joseph-Salisbury,Laura Connelly","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44099557228794,"sku":"9781526157959","price":73.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1646164871860_book.jpg?v=1646916700","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/antiracist-scholaractivism-9781526157959","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
