'Black Star' documents the Asian Youth Movements that emerged in 1970s and 1980s Britain. These organisations, established by the children of early migrants, were determined to struggle against both the racism of the street and the state. Anandi Ramamurthy shows how they drew inspiration from black power movements as well as anti-imperialist and workers' struggles across the globe. The author traces how they were part of a wider collective struggling for social justice and national liberalisation.Subject: This book illustrates the history of the anti-racist campaigns of the British Asian youth movements of the 1970s and 80s
