Description

Despite decades of research into prejudice and discrimination, psychology has often struggled to define racism clearly or explain how it operates across individuals, institutions and societies. Psychology of Racism addresses this gap, offering a timely framework for understanding one of the most significant social issues of our time.
Drawing on psychology, sociology and interdisciplinary scholarship, Marilyn D. Lovett examines racism in all its forms, from everyday interactions to the systems and structures that sustain inequality. Exploring concepts such as internalized racism, race relations, colorblind ideology, allyship and liberation psychology, Lovett challenges readers to move beyond simplistic understandings and engage with racism as both a cultural and systemic phenomenon.
Accessible yet grounded in rigorous social science research, this book brings together key theories, contemporary studies and real-world examples to illuminate how racism shapes both individuals and society. Each chapter includes key terms, discussion questions and reflective activities, making it an invaluable resource for students, educators, practitioners and community leaders alike. At a time when conversations about race are more urgent than ever, Psychology of Racism provides the tools to think critically, act meaningfully and contribute to lasting change.
