A World Without Racism: Building Antiracist Futures

What is antiracist activism? And how do we organize for power around antiracist principles? In this groundbreaking collection, long-time 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 struggles, healthcare and housing, culture, imperialism, policing, prisons, and climate justice. Challenging the harms of the racist establishment and 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.
