A World Without Racism: Building Antiracist Futures - Paperback

by Joshua Virasami (Author)

'With the racism of poverty and state violence deepening relentlessly, new generations have responded, to create new forms of antiracist struggle. A World Without Racism is an essential guide to this work' Arun Kundnani, author of What is Anti-Racism? And Why it Means Anti-Capitalism

'An antiracist communion towards revolutionary love - it is what you need to read for the emergencies before us' Gargi Bhattacharyya, author of The Futures of Racial Capitalism

What is antiracist activism? And how do we organize for power around antiracist principles? In this groundbreaking collection, activist Joshua Virasami gathers the voices of some of our most inspirational organizers, thinkers, and collectives.

A World Without Racism offers a set of clear-eyed, radical, and accessible principles and strategies for building working-class power through antiracist organizing. The book features ten contributions from collectives such as Sisters Uncut, No More Exclusions, Tipping Point, and Greater Manchester Tenants Union on subjects including women's liberation, land and food, healthcare and housing, culture, imperialism, policing, prisons, and climate justice.

Challenging the harms of the racist establishment as well as the entrenchment of the liberal diversity-inclusion complex, this book carves out a much-needed space for the ideas of radical antiracists, putting the politics back into activism.

Joshua Virasami is an antiracist activist and organizer. He is the author of How to Change It. He has also written for the Guardian, Independent, and Novara Media. He has been involved with many grassroots initiatives and is currently head of organizing and training at the London Renters Union.
