Christine Grandy, "Race on Screen: Audience Racism in Twentieth-Century Britain" (Cambridge UP, 2026)
Christine Grandy, Associate Professor in History at the University of Lincoln, studies race, media, and British cultural history. She traces how twentieth-century TV recycled imperial films, how audience research exposed everyday anti-immigrant views, and why programmes from Rainbow City to Desmond's provoked backlash and resistance. Discussion also covers the role of the Black press and changing viewer pleasures with US imports.
