How safe is Britain's Black community? Available to Purchase

In political and academic discourses and policy and practical interventions, the notion of community safety as it applies to the Black community in its own right is seemingly marginalised. This paper aims to demonstrate that this situation in issues of Black community safety owes a great deal to the tradition of discursive, policy and practical portrayals of the Black community as the threat to the Other1 rather than the victim or potential victim of threat from the Other.
