Short description:
Exploring Norway's historical and contemporary racial dynamics, this groundbreaking work illuminates the complexities of racism, the influence of media, and the role of education in fostering understanding and promoting social justice within a diversifying society.
MoreLong description:
In this volume, we explore critical questions about Norway's hidden history of racism and its implications today. Why has Norway largely overlooked its role in the transatlantic slave trade? How do media representations shape public perceptions of race? What can education do to confront and dismantle systemic racism?
This book uncovers the complex interplay between historical narratives, media portrayals, and educational practices, offering fresh insights into the ongoing struggle for racial justice in a diversifying society. We present rare archival images and previously unpublished data that challenge conventional understandings of Norwegian identity and history.
Through compelling case studies—like the “Human Zoo” exhibition and the tragic death of Eugene Obiora—we engage you with powerful stories that highlight the lived realities of racism in Norway. You will witness how these histories resonate within contemporary antiracist movements and educational discourse. This timely work is essential for educators, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding and addressing racial issues in Norway and beyond. Join us in sparking meaningful conversations and actions towards a more inclusive future.
