Lane, Jane – Children & Society, 1993
Attempts to identify the roles of two British laws, the Race Relations Act of 1976 and the Children Act of 1989, in getting rid of racism in children's lives. Britain is the only European country to have comprehensive legislation about racial discrimination, but mere passive acknowledgment has little effect. (SLD)
