Hidden Stories of the Stephen Lawrence Inquiry

Hidden Stories of the Stephen Lawrence Inquiry

Richard Stone

Policy Press
2015
nidottu
Young people who come into contact with police officers on the streets today have little idea of the significance of the stabbing to death of Stephen Lawrence in a racist attack in 1993. Only their parents or grandparents remember the daily exposures of police incompetence and indirect racism which were given high profile in the media for six months. The repercussions of the case are still ongoing with the long overdue conviction in 2012 of two of the original suspects, and in the same year a number of racist assaults by police. This accessible and engaging book includes analysis of hitherto inaccessible transcripts. These dramatically show how the Inquiry was undermined to the point of failure to produce the desired results. Dr Stone also discusses contemporary issues and the relevance of the Inquiry today. This paperback edition is updated with a new Afterword, including revelations about police surveillance on members of the public who attended the Lawrence Inquiry, Dr Stone’s meeting with Mark Ellison QC prior to the release of his report on possible corruption and the role of undercover policing in the Stephen Lawrence case, and proposals for action on implementation of the agenda set by the Lawrence Inquiry. Hard-hitting and full of insightful detail, this book makes essential reading for academics, students, researchers and anyone interested in institutional racism, particularly in the police.

Explore and Learn LFKLawrence was founded in 1854 by the New England Emigrant Aid Company, and it has a bevy of historical locations for visitors. Downtown's infamous Mass Street was nearly destroyed twice by warmongering guerrillas like William Quantrill. It was central to the era of John Brown and Bleeding Kansas and the site of the Wakarusa War. From famous beat writer William Burroughs to poet Langston Hughes, vaudeville actor George "Nash" Walker and basketball inventor James Naismith, the city has been home to a great slice of American historical figures and events. Uncover some familiar landmarks as well as some hidden gems as Tristan Smith, with the help of the Watkins Community Museum, takes readers through Lawrence's unique landscape.

Jack Imel: My Years with Lawrence Welk as a Tap-Dancing Marimba Player

Jack Imel

Are you one of the millions of devoted fans who faithfully watch The Lawrence Welk Show at six o'clock on Saturday night? Then you surely remember Jack Imel, the tap-dancing marimba player who charmed the audience with his musical talent, comedic appeal, and handsome good looks. After a long and lively career in show business that began when he was just a small-town youngster from Portland, Indiana, Jack reluctantly decided it was probably time to retire at the age of 76. In this book, he shares a lifetime of amusing stories that take you behind the scenes with the beloved Welk Family of Musicians and on the road with a bizarre assortment of performers such as Captain Astronaut, Tonka the Lion, and Cannonball Jones. Jack Imel loves life, and his enjoyment shines through in this delightful memoir. Like the lyrics suggest from his signature song "Old Bones": Oh yes, he'd like to do it all again.
