Introduction

There are a lot of buzzwords and phrases in the popular discourse on racism: anti-racism, white privilege, intersectionality.

But what do these terms really mean, and what do they signify in personal terms as well as the larger social context?

For white people, these words can have deep meaning or none at all.

For people of color like Reni Eddo-Lodge, these are facets of society that they experience every day through the systemic racism that exists in the United Kingdom and countries like it.

Reni Eddo-Lodge is a London-based journalist, activist, author and speaker on anti-racism.
