Bhattacharyya, G., Virdee, S. and Winter, A. (2020) Revisiting histories of anti-racist thought and activism. Identities, 27(1), pp. 1-19. (doi: 10.1080/1070289X.2019.1647686)

Abstract

This piece reconsiders histories of anti-racist thought and practice, including the linkages between anti-racisms and other traditions of liberatory thought. We argue that anti-racism should be understood as a strand in radical thought linking internationalism, institutional critique and street activism, in the process interfeeding with other social movements. The traditions of anti-racist thought discussed in this special issue exemplify these cross-cutting influences.
