Publisher's Synopsis
Recently the MacPherson Report, among others, has drawn attention to the existence of institutional racism. In light of this, educational and other institutions face real challenges in attempting to eradicate it. This well informed and practical guide brings together the collective experience and knowledge of black practitioners, students and researchers whose activities, efforts and insights have been growing within the black education movement since the 1960's. It focuses on ways in which black and minority ethnic adult learners are marginalised, and identifies ways in which their needs, in relation to the needs of all learners, can effectively be met to support recruitment, retention and achievement in adult learning institutions. With the help of case studies, practical suggestions, hand-outs and exercises, this photocopiable pack provides an invaluable source of information and advice. It contains examples of good practice to show how to plan, create, deliver and market inclusive programmes to grow an equality culture.
