They have shaped, and been shaped by, British identities, economies and societies for centuries, from colonialism and enslavement to the ‘hostile environment’ of the 2010s. Yet state and societal racism has always been met with resistance. This edited volume collects the latest research on anti-racist action in Britain, and makes the case for a multifaceted, historically contingent ‘tradition’ of British anti-racism shaped by local, national and transnational contexts, networks and movements. Ranging from Pan-Africanist activism in the 1890s to mutual aid women’s groups in the 1970s, from anti-racist trade union marches in Scotland to West African student groups in North East England – this book explores the continuities and interruptions in British anti-racism from the nineteenth century to the present day.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 234mmItem Length: 156mmItem Width: 16mmItem Weight: 562gContributor: Saffron East (Edited by), Grace Redhead (Edited by), Theo Williams (Edited by)Author: Saffron EastGenre: Society & CultureTopic: Social Sciences, HistoryBook Series: Racism, Resistance and Social ChangeRelease Year: 2024 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
