Description
An uncompromising wake-up call. Joy White tells uncomfortable truths and blows apart our understanding of racism, crime and policing in our inner-cities.
"Joy’s deep dive into the history of Newham is strengthened through the level of care given to telling the stories of its people. To read Terraformed is to understand the past and present of Black people in Britain, defined by one borough."
"Joy White’s radical contextualisation of the hyper-local makes painfully perfect sense of everyday inequalities."
Joy White is an independent researcher and the author of Urban Music and Entrepreneurship: Beats, Rhymes and Young People’s Enterprise, one of the first books to foreground the socio-economic significance of Grime music. She writes on a range of themes including social mobility, urban marginality, mental health/wellbeing, and urban music. Joy has lived in east London for forty years.
