Black Star documents the vibrant Asian Youth Movements in 1970s and 80s Britain who struggled against the racism of the street and the state. Anandi Ramamurthy shows how they drew inspiration from Black Power movements as well as anti-imperialist and workers' struggles across the globe. This book is populated by landmark events in anti-racist struggle, from the Grunwick strike, to the Handsworth riots, and the acquittal of the Bradford 12. Ramamurthy writes of the evolution of a politicised Asian youth in Britain, focussing particularly on how the struggle to make Britain 'home' led to the conception of a broad-based identity inspiring unity amongst all those struggling against racism: 'political blackness'. Ramamurthy documents how by the late 1980s this broad based black identity disintegrated as Islamophobia became a new form of racism and how in the process the legacy of the Asian Youth Movements has been largely hidden. Black Star retrieves this history and demonstrates its importance for political struggles today.

This book exposes institutionalised and inter-personal racism in healthcare and its impact on the lives of Black and Brown people. It is based on the experiences and actions of a group of nurses and midwives who came together as a result of the research project Nursing Narratives: Racism and the Pandemic (UKRI/AHRC).Racism in healthcare damages us all and is a matter of social justice. It affects staff retention, staff health and well-being, and the quality of patient care. In this book, nurses and midwives narrate their experiences of racism and reflect on the successes and difficulties of challenging racism within healthcare institutions. With the overall aim of empowering others, including providing white allies with a deep understanding of how racism operates, the book gives opportunities for critical reflection and encourages us to think about how we can bring about progressive change in practice.The book is an invaluable resource, helping health professionals and students understand the patterns of racism in the health workplace.

First published in 2006, this volume provides the first in-depth analysis of the place of visual representations within the process of decolonisation during the period 1945 to 1970. The chapters trace the way in which different visual genres – art, film, advertising, photography, news reports and ephemera – represented and contributed to the political and social struggles over Empire and decolonisation during the mid-Twentieth century. The book examines both the direct visual representation of imperial retreat after 1945 as well as the reworkings of imperial and ‘racial’ ideologies within the context of a transformed imperialism. While the book engages with the dominant archive of artists, exhibitions, newsreels and films, it also explores the private images of the family album as well as examining the visual culture of anti-colonial resistance.
