This book explores the theory, examining why Othering is so much part of human biology and conditioning. Through a narrative approach, the experiences of women of colour growing up in 1970s and 1980s Britain are explored, sharing individual stories and common themes.

This is a monumental task but arguably we have no choice, and so the work of changing how we choose to live feels like the most important work we can do together.
