Harris 108

In his book, Guardian columnist Kenan Malik interweaves three narratives: the history of the idea of race, from the Enlightenment to the present; the relationship between race and class; and his account of how we created a world riven by identity politics. 

Prof. Kennetta Hammond Perry researches Black diasporic communities and political formations shaped by and within the imperial borders of Britain. Her new book is about the life, death and legacy of David Oluwale.
