Musicism in Birmingham 'Musicism' - Discrimination against a person or a genre based on one's unfavorable taste towards that genre of music. (UrbanDictionary.com) The demonization of certain groups and types of music within Britain is not new; in fact, it has provided a source of control for those in power since the middle-ages. A more recent example, however, of an attempt by the British Government to enforce order based on discrimination against a particular genre of music was the introduction of the Criminal Justice and Public Order Bill in 1994 – a section of which was entitled ‘Powers in relation to raves’ (S. 63).

During the murder trial at Leicester Crown Court, the jury heard how Mr Brown was paid thousands of pounds in police payments to help protect him after he...

As I'm sure pretty much everyone who pays attention to the global news world wide is aware of the recent events in and around the U.K. So I know opinions on this are at a high. I will start at some form by beginning that habitually in the UK people are apt at sweeping things under the rug. In a spell of the past 5 months around the UK there have been "protest for justice" marches led by ( British race equality campaigner) Lee Jasper for the lives of people who have died whilst in police custody from Kingsley Burrell to musical sensation Smiley Culture. The latest name in a list that over time has reached a toll of well over 300 was 26 year old...
