This is the story of an anti-racist campaign staged by social workers and allied health professionals which encourages readers to consider their own possibilities for anti-racist action. The murder of George Floyd in May 2020 and subsequent expression of anger, frustration and grief at the continued existence of racism led to more sophisticated and honest conversations about racism and its impact. Social work also started to recognise its own problem with racist systems and its failure as a profession that strives for social justice to have addressed this in any meaningful way. The Anti-Racist Social Worker describe a successful campaign of anti-racist direct action that was staged by a small group of social workers and occupational therapists. The opening chapter tells the story of the campaign from the coming together of the campaign group to the concluding day of action. Subsequent chapters are written by campaign members at different stages of their career, from student social worker to Chief Social Worker for England. Each describes journeys to and stories of anti-racist activism. These stories are about either the writers’ experiences of racism and how this translated into action or their growing understanding of the impact of racism and subsequent decision to take personal action. Importantly, each chapter offers a personal case study and therefore a suggestion of individual anti-racist action that can be taken by social workers. The Anti-Racist Social Worker is a call for action told through individual stories. It shows how those in social care and allied health professions can contribute in a meaningful way to the creation of the change we need and encourages everyone to consider their own roles in dismantling racism.

Dans ce bref essai, Pierre-Andre Taguieff s'interroge sur le devenir de l'antiracisme, qu'il analyse comme un ensemble de croyances et de pratiques oscillant entre le pole des valeurs universalistes et celui des valeurs identitaires ou differentialistes. Soumettant les discours antiracistes contemporains a un examen critique, il analyse la tentation croissante du relativisme culturel radical alimentee par le deconstructionnisme et le constructivisme social, la racialisation de tous les problemes de societe, la sacralisation des minorites erigees en victimes et la seduction exercee par ce qu'il appelle le neo-antiracisme, c'est-a-dire un antiracisme rehabilitant l'idee de race ou d'identite raciale, faisant ainsi surgir, par un retournement paradoxal, un antiracisme racialiste, voire raciste. Nourrie de slogans et de mots de passe ( racisme systemique , racisme d'Etat , intersectionnalite , privilege blanc , etc.), une nouvelle langue de bois pseudo-antiraciste s'est diffusee dans le champ des sciences sociales, ainsi que deux grands dogmes ideologiques : la principale forme de racisme serait aujourd'hui representee par l' islamophobie , et le racisme serait toujours et exclusivement le fait des Blancs , legitimant des lors ce qu'il faut bien appeler un racisme anti-blanc. Face a ces devoiements inquietants du neo-antiracisme, seule l'exigence d'universalite peut permettre de penser une fraternite qui ne soit pas tribale et une solidarite qui ne soit pas sectaire.
