In her new book, White Privilege: The myth of a post-racial society, Professor Kalwant Bhopal explores how neoliberal policy making has increased rather than decreased discrimination faced by those from non-white backgrounds. She also shows how certain types of whiteness are not privileged; Gypsies and Travellers, for example, remain marginalised and disadvantaged in society.
Drawing on topical debates and supported by empirical data, this important book examines the impact of race on wider issues of inequality and difference in society.
