Abstract

Historical geographies of black people in Britain are sorely lacking within the geographical discipline. This is, perhaps, partly because finding histories of black people is relatively difficult. Photography has proved to be an interesting and practical way of recovering such histories, but the use of photography as a research tool raises questions about the inscription of race in Victorian and contemporary society. In this paper I draw attention to the methodological questions that have arisen while undertaking research that appears simultaneously to undermine and to reinforce the issues of racialisation it attempts to deconstruct.
