Effective Ways of Confronting Racism

What are effective means of confronting racism?

Buki Mosaku, founder of DiverseCity Think Tank, claimed that many companies were sinking money into 'well intentioned but fundamentally flawed' strategies around equality, diversity and inclusion, and unconscious bias training.   Mr Mosaku's company offers services to top firms including JP Morgan, Sky TV and Aon. 

A 2019 meta-analysis of 490 studies involving some 80,000 people found UB training did not change behaviour.   Another review of more than 700 companies revealed that after undergoing UBT, Black employees could end up less likely to progress in the workplace.  In 2020, the (British) government also announced plans to phase out unconscious bias training in the civil service after concluding 'there is currently no evidence that this training changes behaviour in the long term or improves workplace equality in terms of representation of women, ethnic minorities or other minority groups’.  The report also states that there is 'emerging evidence of unintended negative consequences'.  (Are these studies widely accepted?)

 'The only effective way of dealing with sensed racial bias is to call it out then and there, asking the non-confrontational question 'I don't understand?' to get to the bottom of the perceived prejudice,' he said. 

But will this approach help with systemic racism or unexpressed racism?
