Description of  Revealing Britain s Systemic Racism

Revealing Britains Systemic Racism applies an existing scholarly paradigm (systemic racism and the white racial frame) to assess the implications of Markles entry and place in the British royal family, including an analysis that bears on visual and material culture. The white racial frame, as it manifests in the UK, represents an important lens through which to map and examine contemporary racism and related inequities. By questioning the long-held, but largely anecdotal, beliefs about racial progressiveness in the UK, the authors provide an original counter-narrative about how Markles experiences as a biracial member of the royal family can help illumine contemporary forms of racism in Britain. Revealing Britains Systemic Racism identifies and documents the plethora of ways systemic racism continues to shape ecological spaces in the UK. Kimberley Ducey and Joe R. Feagin challenge romanticized notions of racial inclusivity by applying Feagins long-established work, aiming to make a unique and significant contribution to literature in sociology and in various other disciplines.
