anti-racist, anti-sexist drawings
by Nathalie Ninvalle

changing images
New ways of seeing are explored in this collections of drawings. They are a much needed portrayal of how our society actually looks - lively and realistic images which replace the bland stereotypes we see everywhere. Ideal for schools and community centres, these drawings may be photocopied easily by teachers for illustrating everyday discussions from primary school upwards. An important and positive alternative to the many racist and sexist images so often used in our modern multi-cultural educational system
