Colorblind Racism

Colorblind Racism explores not only how it has been conceptualised, but also imparts a historical framework for understanding the phenomenon, and novel ways to analyse and combat colorblind racism to "...ensure that a new 'new racism' does not take its place."(p.121).The book provides an accessible yet comprehensive theoretical overview of colorblind racism and scholarship, and covers a wide array of topics of contemporary interest from intersectionality to police brutality.Burke's experience as an educator as well as developer of her university's Engaging Diversity pre-orientation program is clearly evident in Colorblind Racism.The book is exemplary for the teacher-scholar model where Burke's text goes beyond a traditional monograph to serve as an invaluable teaching and learning tool.In addition to the usual discussion questions posed at the end of chapters in textbooks and readers, Burke includes discussion questions embedded within chapters that are relative to adjacent text.Furthermore, at the conclusion of each chapter, she provides a 'further exploration' section that gives students the opportunity to advance research and activism skills through such activities as developing research questions and ideas of how to study them, improving digital literacy, conducting policy evaluation, engaging in role play, and setting achievable goals
