For years, Suzann has felt passionate about observing systemic bias, and the untrue narratives told about history and race. Suzann is an integrative counsellor. Her counselling training journey was both life-changing and eye-opening, as she learnt how we ALL ingest information, which then becomes unconscious and forcefully informs our actions & decisions. She has combined her passion, counselling training insight and hours of research, to demonstrate the process of building implicit racial bias, from the cradle to adulthood.
This book explores the processes which affect our human psyche, along with culture, curriculum, media, race and Government, and the impact of these combinations on self-concept and concept of others. She illustrates how we operate out of this unconscious information, at individual and systemic levels, which feeds into a larger macrostructure. “Suzann uncovers the depth of structural racism from Africa, to the slave ships, the UK and America. The historical references are rich and give the reader an opportunity to weigh up what is offered, essentially asking you to decide.”
