From the development of a small black presence in the sixteenth century, through the colonial labour institutions of slavery, indentureship, and trade unionism, Ramdin expertly guides us through the stages of creation for a UK minority whose origins are often overlooked. He examines the emergence of a black radical ideology underpinning twentieth-century struggles against unemployment, racial attacks and workplace inequality, and delves into the murky realms of employer and trade union racism. First published in 1987, this revised edition includes a new introduction reflecting on events over the past four decades.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Verso","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43412343521535,"sku":"9781786630650","price":29.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0452\/0886\/2873\/files\/9781786630650_s600x595.jpg?v=1775591778","url":"https:\/\/massivebookshop.com\/products\/9781786630650","provider":"MASSIVE BOOKSHOP","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
