How To Spot A Casual Racist - Is It Me?

It's easy to spot overtly racist imagery, policies and behaviour, but what about the everyday micro aggressions that get laughed off as a 'joke' in casual conversations?

Do you know how to recognise casual racism, whether it's in yourself or someone else? Perhaps you are on the receiving end of this inappropriate behaviour on a daily basis and know all too well the harm it causes.

The Quicky speaks with three women of colour about their experiences, including a psychotherapist who helps people to stop and think about their actions, and to discuss what we can all do to end casual racism for good.
