Amidst a backdrop of overlapping crises, the book examines the intersection of race and politics in Britain, particularly in light of colonial legacies and the rise of authoritarianism. The authors, eight prominent scholars, critique traditional discussions of racism by emphasizing broader political and economic contexts rather than individual actions. They explore how global capitalism and the digital landscape have reshaped these legacies, engaging with movements like Black Lives Matter to propose an inclusive political vision that addresses systemic issues rather than exclusionary responses.
