Questo è un libro per il futuro: ci fornisce esattamente gli strumenti di cui abbiamo bisogno per smantellare l'ingiustizia razziale nella nostra società' Baronessa Doreen Lawrence 'Uno studio potente, saliente e scritto con grazia sulle dinamiche corrosive della razza in Gran Bretagna da una voce fidata sull'argomento. Possiamo tutti trarre beneficio dalla sua lettura' Diana Evans Miles, un avvocato di successo, viene scambiato per il cameriere a un evento di networking. Femi è sull'orlo del crollo dopo essere stata costantemente trascurata per la promozione alla sua università. Le e-mail di Nigel, che esprime ripetutamente preoccupazione per la prossima mostra sulla schiavitù del suo datore di lavoro, vengono ignorate. Carol sa che non può permettersi di rilassarsi alla festa di Natale aziendale. Questo è razzismo. Non riguarda gli atti palesi di persone a caso ai margini della società. Riguarda la quotidianità. È il silenzio carico, l'osservazione buttata lì, il commento casuale o una ''battuta'' sul posto di lavoro. È tutto. The Racial Code è un'analisi senza precedenti delle regole nascoste della razza e del razzismo che governano le nostre vite e di come mantengono lo status quo. Intrecciando narrazione con ricerca e teoria, l'acclamata esperta Nicola Rollock mette a nudo in modo unico il dolore e il costo di affrontare il razzismo quotidiano e ci costringe a riconsiderare come raggiungere veramente la giustizia razziale.

Nicola Rollock is Professor of Social Policy and Race at King's College London. She is a member of the Wellcome Trust's Diversity & Inclusion Steering Group and Specialist Adviser to the Home Affairs' Select Committee's 'Macpherson 22 Years On' Inquiry. She was selected by Times Higher Education as one of eleven scholars globally to have influenced the debate in higher education. She is widely known for her research which examines, for the first time in the UK, the career experiences of Black female Professors and the exhibition that led on from this, Phenomenal Women. She has written for the Guardian, the FT and Vogue and she appeared as an expert contributor in the Bafta-winning Channel 4 documentary 'The school that tried to end racism'.
Miles, a successful lawyer, is mistaken for the waiter at a networking event. Femi is on the verge of breakdown having been consistently overlooked for promotion at her university. Nigel's emails, repeatedly expressing concern about his employer's forthcoming slavery exhibition, are ignored. Carol knows she can't let herself relax at the work Christmas party...
This is racism. It is not about the overt acts of random people at the fringes of society. It's about the everyday. It's the loaded silence, the throwaway remark, the casual comment or a 'joke' in the workplace.
It's everything.
The Racial Code is an unprecedented examination of the hidden rules of race and racism that govern our lives and how they maintain the status quo. Interweaving narrative with research and theory, acclaimed expert Nicola Rollock uniquely lays bare the pain and cost of navigating everyday racism -- and compels us to reconsider how to truly achieve racial justice.
