Sobers, Shawn
Authors
Abstract
This book is an exploration of everyday life as experienced through the lens of Black British cultural history and creative practice.
The structure of Black Everyday Life, Material Culture and Narrative: Tings In The House examines everyday life through the lens of the family home, room by room, object by object, as a portal through which to examine the intricacies and nuances of daily considerations of African heritage people living in Britain in the modern era, (post 1950). This book foregrounds the experience of Black British life in the context of domestic space, and demonstrates how the personal sphere directly links to wider public and political concerns.
This book will be of interest to a wide range of disciplines, including Black Studies, Anthropology, Cultural Studies, History, Visual Culture, Media Communication, Sociology, Community Development, Photography, Art and Design, and by any course that studies ethnography, material culture, migration, everyday life, and British society.
