    Windrush, Shame and Scandal: Race, Class, Gender, and Immigration in a British Context “I have learnt silence from the talkative, toleration from the intolerant, and kindness from the unkind; yet strange, I am ungrateful to these teachers”.i This paper explores the issues of race, class and gender at the epicenter of British immigration policy, with particular reference to the lived experiences and reality of the Caribbean “Windrush generation” an estimated 500,000 – 700,000 people in the UK, who arrived from the Caribbean between 1948 and 1971 and their descendants.ii This entails exploring the socio-historical context of the migration of the ”Windrush” Caribbean people to Britain and the experiences of themselves and their descendants in British society. Of necessity, we also review the history of immigration patterns control in the UK. This is a critical exercise in view of the current “Windrush crisis” occasioned by the discriminatory implementation and abuse of Immigration law to deport and disadvantage many of the Windrush generation and their descendants.iii In our review parallel streams or race, class and gender are seen to turbulently converge in the everyday lived experiences of Black people in Britain, giving rise to fractures and fault lines in the fabric and landscape of British society. It is crucial that we begin our review and place this crisis in a socio-legal historical context to ensure analytical veracity. In this regard, it is important to consider that the internecine European tribal conflict, known as “World War

  • Legislative Assembly
    15640 LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY Wednesday 3 June 2009 __________ The Speaker (The Hon. George Richard Torbay) took the chair at 10.00 a.m. The Speaker read the Prayer and acknowledgement of country. BUSINESS OF THE HOUSE Notices of Motions General Business Notices of Motions (General Notices) given. NSW LOTTERIES (AUTHORISED TRANSACTION) BILL 2009 Bill introduced on motion by Mr Kevin Greene, on behalf of Mr Joseph Tripodi. Agreement in Principle Mr KEVIN GREENE (Oatley—Minister for Gaming and Racing, and Minister for Sport and Recreation) [10.05 a.m.]: I move: That this bill be now agreed to in principle. In summary, the NSW Lotteries (Authorised Transaction) Bill has two main functions. The first is to authorise the transfer of NSW Lotteries to a new private operator, while at the same time retaining Government ownership of intellectual property presently owned by the business, including games and brands. The second function of the bill is to enable amendments to the regulatory regime to ensure that public lotteries continue to be operated in a manner that protects community interests and provides harm minimisation measures. The bill will allow taxpayer resources currently locked up in NSW Lotteries to be redirected to community priorities such as health, education and roads. The bill will ensure that net proceeds from this transaction will be transferred directly to the Consolidated Fund, to support the Government's ongoing commitment to important social infrastructure. It is important to note that the Government will continue to receive duties on the sale of lottery products. In the last financial year these levies were more than $300 million, which were allocated to core social infrastructure and front-line services.

  • Anthony Joseph & Friends Windrush: a Celebration
    Anthony Joseph & Friends Windrush: A Celebration Start time: 7.30pm Running time: 2 hours 50 minutes including interval Please note all timings are approximate and subject to change Arwa Haider talks to Anthony Joseph and Jason Yarde about putting together a concert to mark the seismic contribution the Caribbean diaspora has made to British culture. On 22 June 1948, passengers disembarked from the HMT Empire Windrush at Tilbury Dock in Essex. Several hundred of these passengers had boarded the ship in Kingston, Jamaica, and many had travelled from around the Caribbean to Britain: a country inviting immigration from Commonwealth nations as it sought to rebuild itself after WWII. The Windrush generation and its legacy marked a vital sea change for British culture. Tonight, British-Trinidadian poet, novelist, musician and academic Anthony Joseph celebrates the far-reaching impact of the Windrush and the Caribbean diaspora in Britain, with a line-up that is evocative, inspirational and multi-generational. ‘How do we look at 70 years of musical and cultural impact?’ reflects Joseph, when asked about his starting point for the show. ‘Caribbean people have been coming to Britain since the 1800s, but since the 1940s, the diaspora has gone through a series of waves of consciousness. The Windrush generation was coming to what they considered the mother country, trying to fit in and find a place, yet experiencing rejection and denial. We need to address the fact that that the Caribbean is not just Jamaica; I wanted to look at the influence of Trinidad in the 1950s, and how calypso merged into jazz.

  • Legitimacy and Citizenships Anna Waldstein
    Special Issue — Edited by I. Pardo and G. B. Prato Urbanities, Vol. 9 · Supplement 2 · April 2019 On Legitimacy: Multidisciplinary Reflections © 2019 Urbanities Legitimacy and Citizenships Anna Waldstein (University of Kent, U. K.) [email protected] Pardo and Prato’s edited volume on Legitimacy: Ethnographic and Theoretical Insights (2019) raises important questions about the relationships between authority, power and trust, especially (though not exclusively) in the realm of governance. As a medical anthropologist with long-term interests in the use of hand-made, botanically-based remedies (including cannabis), issues related to the legitimacy of these medicines have been implicit (if not explicitly addressed) in my research. However, after reading several of the chapters in Pardo and Prato (2019), I realized that the relationship between legitimacy and citizenship is actually of greatest significance for (and has the most resonance with) my work. As they explain in the introduction to the book, governance and law fail when they do not meet the challenge of establishing a working relationship between formal law and people’s cultural requirements. Thus, ethnographic studies of legitimacy at different levels of power raise fundamental questions about citizenship. This brief essay focuses on issues of legitimacy in relation to three anthropological conceptualizations of citizenship: biological citizenship (Rose and Novas 2003), cultural citizenship (Ong 1995; Goldade 2011) and spiritual citizenship (Guzman Garcia 2016). It takes inspiration from various chapters in Pardo and Prato (2019) and other related literature on citizenship, and draws on some of my own ethnographic work with Jamaican migrants in the United Kingdom.1 I show that while legitimate claims to biological citizenship are defined by both government and medical institutions, they must compete with the grassroots legitimacy that underpins cultural and spiritual citizenship.

  • Why Jews Left Arab Lands: Another Look
    Why Jews Left Arab Lands: Another Look THE FORGOTTEN REFUGEES: the causes of the post-1948 Jewish Exodus from Arab Countries by Philip Mendes, published in the Australian Journal of Jewish Studies, Volume 16, 2002, pp.120-134. This paper explores the question of the other Middle Eastern refugees – the Jews who fled or were expelled from Arab countries between 1948 and the mid 1950s. Specific attention is drawn to the experience of Iraq. Using relevant literature, the author analyses the two principal and polarised versions of the exodus: the Zionist position which attributes the Jewish exodus almost solely to Arab violence or threats of violence; and the Arab or anti-Zionist position which assigns responsibility to a malicious Zionist conspiracy. This paper suggests a middle-ground or less polarised version which acknowledges the role of both anti-Jewish hostility, and the attraction of Zionism and the newly-created State of Israel. Some comparison is also made between the Jewish exodus, and the slightly earlier Palestinian exodus. Whilst acknowledging certain similarities, the author rejects as overly simplistic the specific equation of the two exoduses, or the notion that they constituted a legitimate exchange of populations. — Philip Mendes [Dr. Mendes is on the faculty of Monash University, located near Melbourne, Australia] The Case of Iraq The Jewish departure from Iraq arguably provides the best case example of the Jewish exodus from the Arab world. The Jews of Iraq constituted one of the oldest communities of the Jewish Diaspora, dating back over 2500 years to the time of the Babylonian exile. They were well integrated into Iraqi society, and generally prosperous.

All your planning and preparation has paid off, and the Secretary of State for Education has agreed that your application to open a studio school should move to the next stage of the process – known as the ‘pre-opening’ stage. This is the stage between the approval of your application and the opening of the school. The setting up of a studio school is a challenging but ultimately very rewarding task and it will require significant commitment and time from sponsors and partners. Your original application set out your plans for establishing the studio school, from the education vision and the admission of pupils to the recruitment of staff and the curriculum. Now your application has been approved, you must begin work to implement these plans. The letter of approval you received from the Department for Education (DfE) sets out important conditions of approval. It is vital that you consider these conditions carefully in planning your priorities and what you need to focus on next.

  • Title of Paper
    Free Schools in England: the Future of British Education? Franziska Florack University of Bradford (UK) [email protected] Abstract On the 18 June 2010, Michael Gove and the conservative party announced that they would allow ambitious teachers and community groups to start their own schools. These ‘Free Schools’ would be privately governed but state funded. In September 2011, the first 24 Free Schools opened their doors to students and by the end of 2013, 244 schools had been accepted into the program. Due to a lack of research into Free Schools (which as its best is limited and paints a very confusing picture), little is known about their attainment and motivation. Most writings on the topic are highly politicized and cause frequent storms in the media. Criticisms focus on the high expense of Free Schools, their small year groups and independence from local education authorities (LEAs). This paper gives a brief introduction to the political and historical background of Free Schools and outlines the reactions to their introduction in the UK. It argues that while some initial claims can be made about their success, more research is needed to determine their impact on the UK education landscape. 1. Introduction On the 18 June 2010, Michael Gove and the conservative party announced that they would allow ambitious teachers and community groups to start their own schools. These ‘Free Schools’ would be privately governed but state funded. One of the primary reasons for this change in the UK education system had been that Gove wanted to narrow the gap in provision between poorer families and their wealthier counterparts.
