Windrush 1948 and Rivers of Blood 1968 This volume looks at Britain since - photo 1
Windrush (1948) and Rivers of Blood (1968)
This volume looks at Britain since 1948 the year when the Empire Windrush brought a group of 492 hopeful Caribbean immigrants to the United Kingdom. Post-war Britain may still be the most common label attached to studies in contemporary British history, but the contributors to this book believe that post-Windrush Britain has an explanatory power which is equally useful. The objective is to study the Windrush generation and Enoch Powells now infamous speech not only in their original historical context but also as a key element in the political, social and cultural make-up of todays Britain. Contributions to the book use a diversity of approaches: from the lucid, forward-looking assessment by Trevor Phillips, which opens the volume; through Patrick Vernons account of the legacy of Powells speech in Birmingham and how it inspired him to launch a national campaign for Windrush Day; to the plea from novelist and playwright Chris Hannan for a fully inclusive, national conversation to help overturn deeply ingrained prejudice in all parts of our society.
Trevor Harris is Professor of British Studies at the Universit Bordeaux Montaigne.
British Politics and Society
Social change impacts not just upon voting behaviour and party identity but also the formulation of policy. But how do social changes and political developments interact? Which shapes which? Reflecting a belief that social and political structures cannot be understood either in isolation from each other or from the historical processes that form them, this series examines the forces that have shaped British society.
