Abstract or Description

In this Sociology session, Dr Pamela Odih from the Department of Sociology at Goldsmiths, University of London will run an interactive talk for students on Race, Racism and Leisure – Black Youth Culture in Urban Spaces.

Discrimination and prejudice against ethnic minority youths has been a central theme of research focusing on inner city adolescent leisure.

Focusing on space/identity theory this lecture examines how young ethnic minorities link urban spaces and selves in the pursuit of community recreation in respect to black music cultures.

Aims and Objectives

1. Introduce the significance of space/identity theory to understanding young people and the subversive urban spaces they actively construct

2. To examine how gender and race intersect in the segregation of young adults in community based recreational activities in respect to black music cultures
