Further information at https://star-e.icja.de/. Standing Together Against Racism – A Training Handbook provides concepts and methods to help train and sensitise facilitators, staff, volunteers and participants of youth and voluntary service organisations. The methods enclosed in this handbook do not only facilitate learning and reflection on the roots and symptoms of racism in our society, they also encourage ways of challenging the sometimes hidden racism and underlying discrimination in nonformal education activities run by youth and voluntary service organisations. Equally important are the included methods that aim to empower those who face racist atti-tudes and actions. Written by experts and practitioners for practitioners, this handbook covers methods with a wide variety of topics related to racism: empowerment, microaggression, power dynamics, stereotypes, prejudice, oppression, cultural differences, colonialism, critical thinking, critical whiteness, intolerance and more.
