Research Interests
- Anti-racist protest in the USA, including connections/comparisons abroad
- Religion, racism and protest in the USA, including connections/comparisions abroad
- Writing US history
My research interests include modern race equality struggles in Britain and America, the relationship between religion and racism, and the writing of national history. My most recent book is The Night Malcolm X Spoke at the Oxford Union: A Transatlantic Story of Antiracist Protest (Berkeley, 2014). Other recent books include (with Nicolas Barrerye, Michael Heale and Cecile Vidal) You the People: writing American history abroad (California, 2014), and (with Robin Kelley) The other special relationship: race and rights in Britain and America (Palgrave, 2014). Previous books include an interpretative synthesis of the long struggle for civil rights in the United States, We Ain't What We Ought To Be: the black freedom struggle from emancipation to Obama (Cambridge, Mass, 2010) (a companion website with audiovisual materials is weaintwhatweoughttobe.com).
