As profound socio-racial crises collide with mass anti-racist mobilisations, this book focuses on the praxes of academics working 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 situate the university as a contested space, full of contradictions and tensions. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Drawing upon original empirical data, the book considers how anti-racist scholar-activists navigate barriers and backlash in order to leverage the opportunities and resources of the university in service to communities of resistance. Showing praxes of anti-racist scholar-activism to be complex, diverse, and multi-faceted, and paying particular attention to how scholar-activists grapple with their own complicities in the harms perpetrated and perpetuated by Higher Education institutions, this book is a call to arms for academics who are, or want to be, committed to social justice. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAn electronic edition of this book is freely available under a Creative Commons (CC BY-NC-ND) licence.","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46448804233367,"sku":"9781526157959","price":9453.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781526157959.webp?v=1769144800","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/anti-racist-scholar-activism-9781526157959","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
