Beyond Grievance : What the Left Gets Wrong about Ethnic Minorities

‘A heartfelt and packed-with-stats plea to the Left to abandon victimhood indulgence and instead celebrate the varied and extraordinary triumphs of different ethnic minority groups and individuals’ Katharine Birbalsingh, headteacher of the Michaela SchoolBeyond Grievance highlights the growing tensions between the liberal cosmopolitanism which defines much of the British political Left, and the patriotic faith-based conservatism that runs deep in many of Britain’s ethnic-minority communities. Instead, Rakib Ehsan presents the much-needed case for an inclusive ‘social-justice traditionalism’ rooted in family, security, and equality of opportunity. ‘Rakib Ehsan’s insightful book busts the many myths that the liberal Left likes to tell about Britain’s diversity and shows that there is strength in the traditional values of our ethnic-minority communities’ Lord Maurice Glasman, author of Blue Labour
