What is Race? Who are Racists? Why Does Skin Colour Matter? And Other Big Questions

Nikesh Shukla,Claire Heuchan

An important and timely book on race and racism, encouraging children to think for themselves about the issues involved.

Talk about race is often discouraged, but this book aims to bring everyone into the conversation. It explores the history of race and society, giving context to how racist attitudes come into being. It looks at belonging and identity, the damaging effects of stereotyping and the benefits of positive representation. The authors talk sensitively about how to identify and challenge racism, and how to protect against and stop racist behaviour.

Aimed at young people aged 10 and upwards.
