A recent survey found that 63% of people mix with others from a different ethnic or religious background socially. However, many people belonging to ethnic and religious minority groups still experience discrimination in the UK. What are the causes of racism and how can it be tackled? This book looks at racial discrimination and multiculturalism in Britain. The information comes from a variety of sources, including government reports and statistics, newspapers and magazine articles, surveys and polls, academic research and literature from charities and lobby groups; articles have been tailored to an 11 to 14 age group. Additionally, at the end of each chapter are two pages of activities relating to the articles and issues raised in that chapter.
