Retrieved 18 March 2021.It’s safe to say that I’m about finished with white healthcare professionals. After my terrible experience in my masters year, I was fortunate enough to be directed to a PoC-specific health organisation in Scotland: Saheliya . Run by and for people of colour and offering free counselling, it was life-changing for me to be able to talk about my problems with a counsellor who looked like me, who understood the nuances of my experience, who I didn’t need to walk through the basics of institutional racism, or censor myself around. This and other communities of colour I have had the blessing of being part of have been so integral to learning how to take care of myself and how to speak about these issues, so now I want to pay it forward. The book was not, in fact, longlisted for the Jhalak prize for writers of colour, as Stirling claimed in the clip. The prize’s co-founder, Sunny Singh, said: “Our greatest concern is for the editors and writers of The Colour of Madness. Writing about race and racism is hard. Writing about mental health is difficult. Writing about both together requires incredible courage and the book is a powerful, path breaking testament of this. We can’t imagine the pain that the editors and contributors of this anthology must feel at this time. We extend our solidarity to all of them.” Euan O'Byrne Mulligan (22 January 2021).

However, after news of the deal broke, a recording was shared online of a woman identifying themselves as owning Stirling Publishing, alleged by the Glasgow Anti-Fascist Alliance to be its sole director Tabatha Stirling, apologising to members of the Scottish far-right group Patriotic Alternative over some of her tweets.In a crisis the good and the bad come out but the good always comes out stronger, which is lovely if you’re on your own, having strangers looking out for you.” I’ve found someone who’s JUST LIKE ME - not only can I work with her, but have a lot of fun with her, and we know how much I like THAT”. But Glasgow Anti-Fascist Alliance had outed Tabatha Stirling LAST DECEMBER. Didn’t Ms Burchill do her due diligence on her? And in a separate video that has been shared with the Guardian by an activist who infiltrated Patriotic Alternative, a woman using the name Miss Brittania says: "My name is Tabatha Stirling. I am an author. Nothing else to hide. Always been very conservative, been a nationalist, now ethno-nationalist." Ms Burchill had announced she had signed a deal with Stirling Publishing, an independent outfit based in Scotland, to publish a new book she had written titled Welcome to the Woke Trials: How #Identity Killed Progressive Politics.

Historically, to be as ‘English as they come’ is, of course, to have won the EuroMillions of whiteness. This surprising strand of racism – the failure to outwardly exhibit the necessary purity of whiteness – is more common than is given credit for.After seeing Rihanna speak in Edinburgh about mental health, she asked her to put the book together. This has nothing to do with us, for once. Burchill has been an enfant terrible of British journalism since beginning her career with the NME in the 1970s. Always contrarian, in recent decades her views have lurched further and further to the right. And on Tuesday Burchill publicly apologised for her "racist and misogynist" comments about Muslim journalist Ash Sarkar. She also agreed to pay "substantial damages". The very last thing you would expect is that you too would be on the receiving end of abuse typically reserved for those who don’t qualify as white.

Madame Eunice is often despicable in her attitude towards and treatment of her maids, and indeed her friends. She sees herself as a ‘tiger’ – someone who is at the pinnacle of Singaporean society and entitled to exercise this power. Many aspects of her personality are conditioned by her Chinese heritage and the prevailing attitudes towards those lower down the social hierarchy. The editors of an anthology of writing on mental health among BAME people have cancelled their agreement with Stirling Publishing, after the press was linked to a far right group. We are hoping to use the book as a platform to campaign for governmental policy changes, like more healthcare professionals of colour who are sensitive to contemporary needs and issues of PoC, and who can recognise that trauma may look different on a non-white face.She says she wrote them “because when you are very anti-Islam and you haven’t thought about the JQ and it hasn’t been in your periphery vision, and I was a Tommy Robinson supporter, it is kind of the way you’re led.“ The Colour of Madness was one of her first ever titles, so we found out that we were basically guinea pigs.” He was trying to become a professional footballer. But the ‘purity’ requirements of full racial acceptance persistent in a space that is as mainstream and coveted as it gets in Britain. SAMARA LINTON and Rianna Walcott, the writers behind mental health anthology The Colour of Madness are looking for a new publisher.
