RESISTANCE (STEVE MCQUEEN) (HB)

The story of how protest shaped Britain, and how photography shaped protest, throughout the twentieth century. A combination of archival photographs and expert commentary takes the reader from the formation of the militant Suffragette group in 1903, through anti-Fascist resistance, Greenham Common and the Miner’s Strike, struggles for LGBTQ rights, racial equality and disability rights, and on to the marches against the invasion of Iraq in 2003. Features an introduction by Sir Steve McQueen, an essay by Gary Younge, and firsthand accounts by individuals and photographers.
