Andrew Pilkington

Preface to Critical race theory

Applied Social Studies & Sociology

Research output: Contribution to Book/Report › Foreword/Postscript

Abstract

“This book arrives at a timely moment. The resurgence of the Black Lives Matter movement in the wake of widespread shock felt across the world over the murder of George Floyd at the hands of the police in the US has triggered a renewed concern with race equality and encouraged organisations, including universities, to reflect on what they are doing to address this issue. While we shall have to wait to see whether fine words are translated into effective actions, there is little doubt that universities are currently more willing to listen to BME voices.”
