Multiracist Britain

by Philip Cohen and Harwant Bains

Published 19 August 1988
What are the historical conditions of receptivity - or resistance - to racism within different cultures? How did "race relations" get connected to the youth question in post-war Britain? How far are practices of discrimination institutionalized in state education and youth training policies? How are the responses of Asian and Afro-Carribean youth affecting the politics of their elders? In examining these questions, the contributors to this volume draw on their own research and involvement in the anti-racist movement to bring out the implications for future practice. The book includes a series of debates on multicultural education and anti-racist youth work, as well as an interview with Trevor Griffiths on "Oi for England".
