This volume explores the shifting nature of anti-racism in Britain through 11 illuminating case studies. Together, they highlight the tensions between solidarity and paternalism, demonstrate the interplay between local, national and transnational forces, and illustrate the legacies and trajectories of these histories in the present. -- .
Concepts of race and racism are central to British history. 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 womens 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.
