Five public talks on race relations.
Dr Stuart Hall, Director, Centre for Cultural Studies, University of Birmingham.
What sense are we to make of events such as the Notting Hill riots of 1958, the Smethwick by-election of 1964, and the various Immigration and Race Relations Acts passed since? Over the last 20 years, has it become more 'legitimate' to use words and expressions which are tinged with racial prejudice? If so, why and how has it happened? Dr Hall analyses the relationship between Britain's economic and social problems and the formation of 'climates of public opinion' on questions of race and immigration.
The texts of these talks are available in a booklet. Details from: Multi-Racial Britain, [address removed].
