An essential read for anyone who wants to make a difference' Simon Goodman, Group CIO, Network Rail 'Analyses the roots of discrimination in our society in all its forms, as well as the influence of religion and social norms. Through the different chapters, Levy dissects the problems and encourages every one of us to take active action and stop being just “nice”. She also takes the time to see things “from the other side”, and advocates for sensible debate, allyship and using our sphere of influence' Intelligent Magazine
