Critics Review

Liz Fekete is one of the best analysts of the complexities of racism in Europe today. – Professor Avery Gordon, Department of Sociology, University of California, Santa Barbara
Fekete’s writing is incisive, informative and infused with a controlled but passionate outrage at the injustices she relates. * Red Pepper *
[Praise for A Suitable enemy] Illuminating the issues and enlightening readers confused by the contradictions of the liberal press, this book is an essential tool for understanding contemporary racism and a demonstration of how necessary the fight against racism is for the full realisation of human rights * Manchester Mule *
