The hurricane from the Right

Abstract

In Race & Class 65.2, two key articles examined the British war on woke (Hugh Davies and Sheena MacRae) and the role of Tory ‘post-racial’ gatekeepers (Rima Saini, Michael Bankole and Neema Begum). This commentary draws out the lessons for activists, from the two articles and campaigns on the ground, as to how far-right ‘theories’ and ideas are becoming mainstreamed by the media, politicians and academics.
