Race & Well-Being : The Lives, Hopes and Activism of African Canadians, Paperback / softback Book

Race & Well-Being : The Lives, Hopes and Activism of African Canadians Paperback / softback

Edited by Akua Benjamin, Carl James, Wanda Thomas Bernard, David Este, Bethan Lloyd, Tana Turner

Paperback / softback

Description

Through in-depth qualitative research with African Canadians in three Canadian cities-Calgary, Toronto, and Halifax-this study explores how experiences of racism, when combined with other social and economic factors, affect the health and well-being of this segment of the country`s population.

With a special interest in how racial stereotyping impacts black men and boys, the book presents stories of racism and violence and describes how reactions to racism differ across a range of social and economic variables.

In addition, the discussion rejects the notion that black communities are homogeneous and provides a detailed examination of three distinct communities: Caribbean, immigrant African, and Canadian black.
