David GoodhartAuthor of Biracial Britain, Remi Adekoya, returns with Its Not About Whiteness, Its About Race to explore the issues of contemporary racial hierarchies and put forward the argument that these hierarchies are determined by economics which is why they are a faithful reflection of todays economic hierarchies.Race relations are shaped by socioeconomic realities, not by ideologies la white supremacy as often currently argued. In a capitalist world, the most important power is financial power. Financial power is what enables the acquisition of both hard and soft power, hence the status of a racial group ultimately depends on its collective financial muscle. The existing racial hierarchy that fuels racism is the brutally logical consequence of a global economic hierarchy and must be faced as such to be faced effectively.Throughout Adekoyas provocative and informative prose he examines this argument while taking into account his experiences he has observed from his own upbringing in Nigeria, his Polish heritage and also his experiences living in Britain....(*_*)9781405555388_Remi Adekoya is a welcome blast of unsentimental rigour into a race debate clogged up with emotion and moralism. His dissection of the economic underpinnings of the worlds racial and national hierarchies will make uncomfortable reading for both liberals and conservatives David GoodhartThis terrifically illuminating book . . . offers a new way of understanding modern racial structures i NewspaperThis is a courageous and urgent intervention into one of the most important debates of our time - one in which we often seem curiously incurious about what would lead to genuine equality among groups. In clear and elegant prose Dr. Adekoya will shift the way you think about hierarchies of race Thomas Chatterton WilliamsRemi brings a unique international perspective to the race debate, allowing the reader to understand complexities in the discussion that they wont have considered before Katharine BirbalsinghIts Not About Whiteness, Its About Wealth form[s] part of the urgent and long-awaited intellectual work needed to create a genuinely fair and socially just society, one that doesnt depend on treating ethnic minority people like children . . . The strength of Adekoyas book is that it is rooted in concrete, material questions in the context of a debate transfixed by the performative and the representational CriticAdekoyas book is one of the rare works which problematize the Woke stereotypes: it correctly grounds "racist prejudices" in wealth differences. All sincere liberal anti-racists should read this book to grasp why their efforts are so counterproductive. And since liberal anti-racism is the hegemonic ideology in our countries, this means that EVERYBODY should read Adekoyas book Slavoj iekAt once witty and fact-filled-but also self-deprecating and sometimes very moving-Its Not About Whiteness, Its About Wealth turns current debates about racism and privilege on their heads Helen DaleWhat really matters when it comes to race?Western conversations on race and racism revolve around familiar themes; colonialism, the Trans-Atlantic slave trade and the ideology of white supremacism form the holy trinity of the race debate. But what if we are neglecting a key piece of the puzzle? Something that explains why a racial order persists today despite a moral consensus it should not.In Its Not About Whiteness, Its About Wealth, Remi Adekoya persuasively argues that - in our capitalist world - it is socioeconomic realities which play the leading role in sustaining racial hierarchies in everyday life and in the global big picture, something regularly overlooked in the current debate. Financial power is what enables ultimate influence over events, environments, and people, and, as Adekoya expertly demonstrates, it is money more than anything else that maintains the racial pecking order. Exploring immigration, technology, media, group stereotypes, status perceptions and more, this book cleverly shows how wealth determines whats what in key domains of modern life, and how this affects racial dynamics across the globe.An incisive, insightful and open investigation into the links between financial power and racial hierarchies, Adekoya sheds much needed light on the status and power imbalances shaping our world and reveals what needs to be done to combat them going forward....9781405555388_Little, Brown Book Groupaudiolibro_00328368-92a7-385b-a62e-81741c4d8769_9781405555388;9781405555388_9781405555388Remi AdekoyaInglésMéxicoNoMINUTE2023-04-20T00:00:00+00:00Little, Brown Book Group
