He served as senior community relations officer in Wolverhampton before moving on to the Community Relations Commission as Principal Development Officer. He held several posts in the Commission for Racial Equality, culminating in the post of Chief Executive. After retiring from the Commission, he functioned as a freelance journalist and broadcaster. He is the author of The State of Black Britain Volume One, first published in 1983, which carries an analysis of the forces that governed the post-war immigration of black people into Britain. It covers the search for jobs and housing, the challenges faced in education and social services and how race became a volatile political issue. Volume Two picks up where Volume One concludes and begins with an analysis of the Thatcher years and their impact on the Black community. Together the two volumes represent a comprehensive, honest, insider’s view of the struggle for equality in Britain Title A name given to the resource Dr Aaron Haynes FCMI Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived stories,arrival Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context 6177 Type The nature or genre of the resource Story Spatial Coverage Spatial characteristics of the resource. current,52.855864177853995,-0.5712890625000001;origin,13.170422607388259,-59.55688476562501; Subject The topic of the resource arrival Europeana Specific elements of the Europeana Semantic Elements.
