520 $a"Racism blights both the UK and the US, but there is much misunderstanding as to what racism actually encompasses. Through a thorough account of its history and current forms on both sides of the Atlantic and its relationship to schooling, Marxist and neo-Marxist analysis is used to both understand it and to move towards its eradication. Developments towards twenty-first century socialism in Venezuela are used as a model for a future world, and suggestions are made for classroom practice against racism and for socialism. Both socialism as a concept and events in Venezuela have been subject to massive media distortion. This book sets out to put the record straight"--$cProvided by publisher.
