Okech, Jane E. Atieno; Champe, Julia
International Journal for the Advancement of Counselling, v30 n2 p104-115 Jun 2008
International and interdisciplinary literature on cross-racial friendships is critically reviewed as a source of relevant and provocative data for counselling professionals dedicated to multiculturalism. The authors discuss the dynamics of cross-racial friendships and implications for counsellors. Using practical examples grounded by interdisciplinary literature, the authors expand discussions about racism within the counselling profession.
