Abstract

This article examines some of the main ways in which racism operates through the social security system in Britain, in particular at the connection between entitlement to benefit and immigration control and at the failure of the system to meet specific problems faced by black claim ants. It looks also at the implications for black people of the recent govern ment review of the social security system and the Social Security Bill before parliament at the time of writing. A final section suggests some points for consideration in the development of an anti-racist strategy for welfare benefits.
