Publisher's Synopsis
This work highlights an urgent priority to refocus 'traditional' antiracism and work directly with adolescents at risk of perpetrating racist violence. The nature of racist action shows that prejudice can be inadvertently re-inforced in schools and by inappropriate 'Town Hall' practice. Aimed at professionals working with young racist offenders in all parts of the country, the book explores how beliefs are transmitted among white peer groups. It then identifies pro-active educational strategies for developing more construcive values.
