Elliott-Cooper analyses racism beyond prejudice and the interpersonal - arguing that black resistance confronts a global system of racial classification, exploitation and violence. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eImperial cultures and policies, as well as colonial war and policing highlight connections between these histories and contemporary racisms. But this is a book about resistance, considering black liberation movements in the 20th century while utilising a decade of activist research covering spontaneous rebellion, campaigns and protest in the 21st century. Drawing connections between histories of resistance and different kinds of black struggle against policing is vital, it is argued, if we are to challenge the cutting edge of police and prison power which harnesses new and dangerous forms of surveillance, violence and criminalisation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Adam Elliott-Cooper\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1526143933\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781526143938\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Manchester University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.70lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.40w x 0.50d","brand":"Adam Elliott-Cooper","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":43989096005887,"sku":"9781526143938","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_4a94cba4-4be0-44d7-8780-baa823b234e8.jpg?v=1683297671","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/black-resistance-to-british-policing-adam-elliott-cooper-9781526143938","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
