Synopsis:

An account of a frank, open and honest conversation between a male born in London of English parents and a female born in London of Caribbean parents. Their discussion ranges through racism in Britain, the portrayal and perceptions of Blacks in the media and general society, cultural identity, White privilege and assumptions, immigration, institutional racism and unconscious bias, and the legacies of slavery, Colonialism and Imperialism. This book examines some of the causes and complexities of the issue of racism from their perspectives.

About the Author: Christiana O'Connor was born in London, to Jamaican migrant parents and grew up in London where she continues to reside. "Playing the Race Card (A Chip on my Shoulder)" was primarily motivated by her wish to promote unreserved conversations regarding racism, an understanding of how it affects those who are the recipients of racism and to make some small contribution towards the ideal of people of differing 'races' living and working more harmoniously alongside one another.
