151. INSTITUTIONALLY AFRAID - On The Importance Of Acknowledging Institutional Prejudice

March 27, 2023 by DaN McKee in EDI, Education, Gender, Justice, LGBTQ, Philosophy, Philosophy Unleashed, Politics, Punishment, Racism, School

“When we refuse, as Rowley has, to acknowledge the institutional nature - the structural nature - of the racism (and misogyny and homophobia) that permeates an organisation we are refusing to fully grasp the nature of the problem, or fully see what such prejudice looks and feels like for those who experience it.“
