Produktbeschreibung
Drawing on a selection of works from such prominent authors as Monica Ali, Hanif Kureishi, and Zadie Smith, "Race and Antiracism in Black British and British Asian Writing" offers the first extended exploration of the cultural impact of race and antiracism in Britain through the lens of black British and British Asian literature. With antiracism--the politics of opposing discrimination--increasingly determining racial categorizations and identities, this study traces its influence over the last two decades on individual identities and the wider political debate, including the changing attitudes toward Muslim culture in Britain and the role of Africa as a symbolic focus for black political culture. This volume will be of interest to anyone seeking a better understanding of the nuances of antiracism in Britain.
