An Epitaph to multiculturalism?
CultivAsian in association with The 1990 Trust organised a conference on Friday 18th August 2006, at the Nehru Centre, London, to get messy with some of the current debates around multiculturalism.
Our panellists, drawn from across media, political and literary institutions were in conversation about their future in multi-ethnic Britian.

Some of the questions they responded to are those raised by community organisations, policymakers and government commissions. What does multiculturalism mean today? Are we digging its grave? Is it time to bury the fight for race equality and either join the British nationalists or follow the sleepwalkers to segregation? Is mainstream media engaging with minorities in a meaningful way so that ethnic media can clear out its closets? Are white middle-class publishing houses dancing in tune with the Asian beats while community organisations mute diverse expressions?

In the following panel sessions you can explore how some of the heated yet honest debates went.
