Abstract

African Caribbeans began migrating from the West Indies to the United Kingdom between 1914 and 1939. This descriptive and multi-disciplinary paper examines how institutionalized racism impacted on African Caribbean migrants and their offspringin the areas of housing, education, mental health, and the criminal justice system. A ‘time/distance’ conceptual framework guides the present discourse on the processes by which African Caribbeans’ racially subordinate positioning occurred in British society. This paper concludes with recommendations for the personal and collective development of African Caribbeans.
