Disrupting White Mindfulness: Race and Racism in the Wellbeing Industry by Cathy

Description: Disrupting White Mindfulness by Cathy-Mae Karelse Estimated delivery 4-14 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Disrupting White Mindfulness offers a timely commentary on the dominant narratives and norms that shape the Mindfulness Industry. Mindfulness is now common throughout the West, but this book reveals how the industry is infused with whiteness and late capitalism. Publisher Description Disrupting White Mindfulness offers a timely commentary on the dominant narratives that shape the mindfulness industry - whiteness, postracialism and neoliberalism. Its positioning as apolitical forges institutions that fit comfortably into increasingly divided societies. The race-gender profile of these institutions reveals a White, middle-class profile of decision-makers, educators and staff that is mirrored in its audiences. Mechanisms that recycle the industrys whiteness include corporatist pedagogies, edicts of authority, disengagement with difference and inappropriate uses of mindfulness that distance People of the Global Majority. A growing emergent movement focused on a justice-infused mindfulness and liberatory wellbeing decolonises mindfulness and de-centres whiteness. Its premise in indigenous, global South, queer knowledges leverages difference to produce multiple solutions focused on liberation. There is room for White Mindfulness to change.
