Racism. It’s a word we hear thrown around in accusation, in defense, and as a pin in a grenade that threatens to blow up society as we know it. But what does it mean for racialized folks? Can a racialized person be racist?
Muted Colours uses the stories of fourteen racialized women to provide an insightful look into the concept of internalized racism and how it impacts life and identity. Racialized readers will learn language to name their experiences and recognize the biases they’ve been socialized to hold. White readers will gain a better understanding of how racism impacts racialized folks on individual and systemic levels.
Concluding with self-reflection questions and concrete strategies for unpacking and reducing implicit biases to action change in everyday life, Muted Colours powerfully strengthens our understanding of internalized racism and invites us to embrace our racial identities and work toward a more just society.
