Description: | Aloke Biswas is a social worker in Hackney who was involved with anti-racist activities in the 1970s. Here, in conversation with Jamil Iqbal and Charlie Sen of the Swadhinata Trust, he recalls what race relations were like in the East End at the time, and the racial abuse to which the Bangladeshi community was subject. He recalls racist incidents of "paki-bashing," including murders, as well as the activities of radical and left-wing groups that were designed to combat this. | License: | http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ | Publisher: | Bishopsgate Institute | Rights holder: | Swadhinata Trust | Subjects: | Migration and Citizenship Communities Power and Politics | Temporal: | 2006 | Source: | Bishopsgate Institute | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Go to resource |
