A powerful, engaged account of a pivotal moment in Black British history and antiracist struggle. This book presents a radical, in-depth survey of the Brixton uprising of 1981 and the social inequalities and institutional racism of British politics and policing that led to it. Matt Clement situates the events of April 1981 within the long history of urban oppression and revolt in London, as well as the contemporary Caribbean struggles that shaped the consciousness of the local community. He examines how policing practices, economic marginalization, and the enduring legacy of empire produced the alienation that fueled resistance, and how Rastafarian thought articulated a powerful cultural challenge to Babylon, the name given for the evil values of society that must be resisted for justice to prevail. Bringing together historical analysis and social critique, Uprising reveals how and why Brixton fought back--and how its defiant energy helped reshape British culture, politics, and antiracist activism.
Matt Clement is a senior lecturer in criminology at Royal Holloway, University of London. His books include A People's History of Riots, Protest and the Law and No Justice, No Police? The Politics of Protest and Social Change.
