BS8 1SS, UK. [email protected] Chris Brunsdon, National Centre for Geocomputation, Maynooth University, Maynooth, Co. Kildare, Ireland. [email protected] Abstract Drawing on the work of The Doreen Lawrence Review – a report on the disproportionate impact of Covid-19 on Black, Asian and minority ethnic communities in the UK – this paper develops an index of exposure, measuring which ethnic groups have been most exposed to Covid-19 infected residential neighbourhoods during the first and second waves of the pandemic in England. The index is based on a Bayesian Poisson model with a random intercept in the linear predictor, allowing for extra-Poisson variation at neighbourhood and town/city scales. This permits within-city differences to be decoupled from broader regional trends in the disease. The research finds that members of ethnic minority groups tend to be living in areas with higher infection rates but also that the risk of exposure is distributed unevenly across these groups. Initially, in the first wave, the disease disproportionately affected Black residents.

  • 'Squatting Is a Part of the Housing Movement'
    'Squatting Is A Part OF The HousinG Movement' PRACTICAL SQUATTING HISTORIES 1969 - 2019 'Squatting Is Part Of The Housing Movement' ‘...I learned how to crack window panes with a hammer muffled in a sock and then to undo the catch inside. Most houses were uninhabit- able, for they had already been dis- embowelled by the Council. The gas and electricity were disconnected, the toilets smashed...Finally we found a house near King’s Cross. It was a disused laundry, rather cramped and with a shopfront window...That night we changed the lock. Next day, we moved in. In the weeks that followed, the other derelict houses came to life as squatting spread. All the way up Caledonian Road corrugated iron was stripped from doors and windows; fresh paint appeared, and cats, flow- erpots, and bicycles; roughly printed posters offered housing advice and free pregnancy testing...’ Sidey Palenyendi and her daughters outside their new squatted home in June Guthrie, a character in the novel Finsbury Park, housed through the ‘Every Move You Make’, actions of Haringey Family Squatting Association, 1973 Alison Fell, 1984 Front Cover: 18th January 1969, Maggie O’Shannon & her two children squatted 7 Camelford Rd, Notting Hill. After 6 weeks she received a rent book! Maggie said ‘They might call me a troublemaker. Ok, if they do, I’m a trouble maker by fighting FOR the rights of the people...’ 'Squatting Is Part Of The Housing Movement' ‘Some want to continue living ‘normal lives,’ others to live ‘alternative’ lives, others to use squatting as a base for political action.

  • Historical and Contemporary Archaeologies of Social Housing: Changing Experiences of the Modern and New, 1870 to Present
    Historical and contemporary archaeologies of social housing: changing experiences of the modern and new, 1870 to present Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Leicester by Emma Dwyer School of Archaeology and Ancient History University of Leicester 2014 Thesis abstract: Historical and contemporary archaeologies of social housing: changing experiences of the modern and new, 1870 to present Emma Dwyer This thesis has used building recording techniques, documentary research and oral history testimonies to explore how concepts of the modern and new between the 1870s and 1930s shaped the urban built environment, through the study of a particular kind of infrastructure that was developed to meet the needs of expanding cities at this time – social (or municipal) housing – and how social housing was perceived and experienced as a new kind of built environment, by planners, architects, local government and residents. This thesis also addressed how the concepts and priorities of the Victorian and Edwardian periods, and the decisions made by those in authority regarding the form of social housing, continue to shape the urban built environment and impact on the lived experience of social housing today. In order to address this, two research questions were devised: How can changing attitudes and responses to the nature of modern life between the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries be seen in the built environment, specifically in the form and use of social housing? Can contradictions between these earlier notions of the modern and new, and our own be seen in the responses of official authority and residents to the built environment? The research questions were applied to three case study areas, three housing estates constructed between 1910 and 1932 in Birmingham, London and Liverpool.

  • Guest Speaker: Lord Victor Adebowale CBE from Stephen Lawrence to Grenfell – 20 Years for Race Equality
    Guest Speaker: Lord Victor Adebowale CBE From Stephen Lawrence to Grenfell – 20 years for Race Equality Thank you for joining us today to celebrate this milestone with us – 20 years of Race on the Agenda. So I’m going to talk for 20 minutes – 1 minute for each year – so you won’t have to listen to me witter on for too long. I promise I’ll keep to time so we can get on to the reception. Don’t want to see you all looking at your watches. Change has not been linear ROTA has spent the last 20 years fighting to bring the issues that impact BAME people into focus – working to reduce online hate speech, researching young girls and gangs and equipping third sector organisations with a comprehensive understanding of the Equality Act. The change has not been linear – we’ve faced roadblocks, successive governments and I’ve seen more ‘Race’ reviews than I’ve listened to Stevie Wonder albums. But is the arc for Race Equality bending towards justice in the overall? It’s hard to say. In 2009, 10 years on from the Stephen Lawrence Inquiry, an Ipsos MORI poll for the Equality and Human Rights Commission showed us a country more at ease with itself than ever before – a nation where nearly half of its citizens were optimistic Britain would be more tolerant in 10 years’ time. Back then - 58% of ethnic minorities were optimistic about the future. Would 58% of ethnic minorities say the same today? I doubt it. Now our reality is quite different.
