Law lecturer and mindfulness practitioner, Rhonda Magee, shows that the work of racial justice begins with ourselves. When conflict and division are everyday realities, our instincts tell us to close ranks, to find the safety of our own tribe and to blame others. The practice of mindfulness - paying attention to our thoughts, feelings and physical sensations in an open, non-judgmental way - increases our emotional resilience, helps us to recognise our unconscious bias and gives us the space to become less reactive and to choose how we respond to injustice. For victims of injustice, mindfulness calms our fears and helps us to exercise self-compassion. Magee shows us how to slow down and reflect on micro-aggressions - to hold them with some objectivity and distance - rather than bury unpleasant experiences so they have a cumulative effect over time. She helps us develop the capacity to address the fears and anxieties that would otherwise lead us to re-create patterns of separation and division. It is only by healing from the injustices done against us and dissolving our personal barriers to connection that we develop the ability to view others with compassion and to live in community with people of vastly different backgrounds and viewpoints. Incorporating mindfulness exercises, research and Magee's hard-won insights, THE INNER WORK OF RACIAL JUSTICE offers a route to a more peaceful world.
