Every two months we put together a themed book list – and this month we focus on everything anti-racism, decolonising, and decentring Whiteness. If you want to learn more about systemic racism, what it’s like to grow up Aboriginal in Australia, and what the term ‘white fragility’ is, these books are a great place to start.
Contact us on socials @theequalityinstitute and let us know what other books we should add to the list!
Loan these from your local library, pick up a second-hand copy, or buy them new at your local bookstore!
