Young Voice

Young Voice takes the reader back more than

twenty five years, to a time when the activities of the

far right political parties were active in the

Bethnal Green area of London.



It looks at the challenges which faced the young Bangladeshi

living in the area at that time and how they coped with

the intimidation and outright racism which manifested

itself on the very streets where they lived.



From the late 70s, all through the 90s and to the present

day, Young Voice is a record of young people's involvement

in the demonstrations which defined the time and

contributed to the defeat of hatred and the lack of inclusion

and acceptance that was prevalent.



Told in stories of the times and from the photographs taken

by the author, Young Voice is a moving account of how

the youth challenged the status quo of its own community

and took the fight to the haters and ultimately

removed them from the streets.
