Title: Racialised barriers
First published: 1994
Description: Racialised Barriers is an explicit and systematic comparison of key distinct differences and striking similarities between the experience of Black people in the USA and England in the 1980s. It highlights the continuing significance of the racialised barriers, boundaries and identities in patterns of racialised inequality that prevail in each nation.

Stephen Small argues that racialised hostility is woven into the social fabric of the US and England in ways that ensure its continuation well into the next century. However, he rejects the idea that the best way to combat hostility is for Black people as a whole to join in a class allegiance with white leaders, or to uncritically accept the agendas of so-called Black leaders. Instead he argues for an approach that builds on shared racialised identities and Black organisations.

. This book will be of immense interest to academic analysts of 'race' and 'racism' in industrialised societies, and in particular will be of interest to students of sociology, international relations and ethnicity studies.
