Ludi Simpson and Tariq Modood on Radio 4 on Challenging the ‘Parallel Lives’ Myth: Race, Sociology, Statistics and Politics

 

The first fifteen minutes of last week’s Thinking Allowed on Radio 4 is based on Nissa Finney and Ludi Simpson “‘Sleepwalking to segregation’?”. Listen to the interview with Ludi Simpson and Tariq Modood. If you’re like to read in audio, you can listen again at http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00k9d7y

 

The BSA Race and Ethnicity Study Group and the BSPS are taking the opportunity of the publication of ‘Sleepwalking to Segregation’? Challenging myths about race and immigration by Nissa Finney and Ludi Simpson (Policy Press 2009) to review recent public debates about ‘race’, immigration and integration. The idea of communities living ‘parallel lives’ and of Britain ‘sleepwalking to segregation’ will be a major focus of the seminar. The occasion will also mark the official launch of Sleepwalking to Segregation.
