Description - Black British Culture and Society by Kwesi Owusu
Black British Culture and Society brings together in one indispensable volume key writings on the Black community in Britain, from the 'Windrush' immigrations of the late 1940s and 1950s to contemporary multicultural Britain. Combining classic writings on Black British life with new, specially commissioned articles, Black British Culture and Society records the history of the post-war African and Caribbean diaspora, tracing the transformations of Black culture in British society. Frank and uncompromising, Black British Culture and Society tackles some challenging questions - does being Black in Britain make you Sick? (James Y. Nazroo) - why did Jimmy Greaves find Lindford Christie's lunchbox so intriguing? (Ben Carrington). In all the book provides a rich source of analysis, critique, and comment on the Black community's distinctive contribution to cultural life in Britain today, through performance, carnival, sport, style, fashion, literature, theatre, art and film-making.
