Asians in Britain By Tim Smith & Naseem Khan

£15.00

During the early decades of the 1900s, small numbers of men from India, Pakistan and Bangladesh settled in Britain. Larger numbers arrived during and just after WWII, when Britain used the links it had established during the days of the empire to satisfy a huge and growing demand for labour. Tim Smith’s photographs explore this now vital British presence. Delighting in individual distinctiveness, they are also keenly alive to the binding power of community. Naseem Khan’s text uses key moments in her own history to illuminate this changing face of British society. Together they provide a picture of a shifting world where values collide and new identities are formed.
