Not Forgetting Black Lives Matter
This article examines the relationship between social networks, protest and memory.It begins by focusing on activists' attempts to supplement official narratives before going on to explore the way the digital offers mechanisms that both ameliorate and heighten the fear of forgetting.It goes beyond an investigation of the role played by "activists" in these dynamics and reflects upon the memory work undertaken by "ordinary people."These arguments …
Covid Publics and Black Lives Matter
This article will examine the ways in which COVID has reconfigured the boundaries between online and offline, as well as public and private spaces. The threat posed by the global pandemic meant that public spaces quickly emptied, work zoomed into the home, and windows became notice boards filled with moraleboosting messages. Every Thursday, UK doorsteps became the space in which private individuals emerged from their own homes to express their gr…
Moldes y otros útiles procedentes del alfar tardorromano de Sobrevilla (Badarán, La Rioja)
La abundante presencia de terra sigillata hispánica tardía recuperada en asentamientos del bajo imperio contrasta con el escaso conocimiento de los centros productores de este tipo de vajilla, circunstancia que inevitablemente ralentiza el estudio general de esta apasionante secuencia cultural. Damos a conocer en este artículo un conjunto de materiales arqueológicos, compuesto por ciento treinta y un fragmentos de molde y otros útiles propios de …
‘Look at What We Made’
This article sets out key findings of an interdisciplinary Arts and Humanities Research Council (AHRC) funded project that uses Long Live Southbank’s (LLSB) successful campaign to retain London’s Southbank Undercroft for subcultural use – skateboarding, BMXing, graffiti art, etc. – as a case study to generate discussions about young people’s experiences and engagements with (sub)cultural heritage and political activism. At the heart of this inqui…
Resisting relocation and reconceptualising authenticity
In 2013 the Southbank Centre proposed the redevelopment of a complex of buildings including a famous skate spot known as the Undercroft. The 2013–14 campaign to protect the Undercroft drew strongly on heritage arguments, encapsulated in the tagline, ‘You Can’t Move History: You Can Secure the Future’. The campaign, which was ultimately successful as the Undercroft remains open and skateable, provides a lens through which three key areas of herita…
Power revealed
Demonstrations which spill over into conflict have always required the police to distinguish between members of the public exercising their right to protest and members of the public engaging in criminal activity, i.e. between ‘good protesters’ and ‘bad protesters’. Journalists who depended heavily upon official sources when constructing news narratives have historically reproduced these distinctions and, as a result, images of violent protesters…
The Cartographies of Protest
In The Practice of Everyday Life, de Certeau likens himself to a Solar Eye reading the city spread out like a text below. He compares this all-seeing position to the enmeshed position of those whose intermingled footsteps pass through the city streets, writing stories that deliberately elude legibility. These two ways of experiencing the city offer a theoretical frame through which I will explore both the administration of protest spaces, and pro…
Revealing Power
This article examines the practical and theoretical implications raised by protesters' use of masks to conceal themselves from the eyes of the state. It argues that the refusal to be seen and categorized by the state is empowering in that it exposes, and then unsettles, the power dynamics that have traditionally structured public space. It analyzes the different ways in which masks create transformative in-between spaces that signify the presence…
Textbook of Cultural Psychiatry
Cultural psychiatry is concerned with understanding the impact of social and cultural differences and similarities on mental illness and its treatments. A person's cultural characteristics can often lead to misunderstandings, influenced by language, non-verbal styles, codes of etiquette and assumptions. There may also be perceived misconceptions and differences in beliefs and values. In order to provide appropriate, sensitive and acceptable servi…
Impact of Fatigue in Parkinson’s Disease
Mental health care for Hispanic Americans
In this article, the authors review patterns and challenges in the conceptualization, implementation, and academic support of the mental health services of Hispanic Americans. A critical analysis was conducted on information obtained through manual and computerized searches of published literature and conference reports. New clinical care approaches include the DSM-IV's cultural formulation with its complement of standardized multiaxial diagnosis…

Community mental health
Hispanic Patients
Verbal communication is essential to psychiatry, and language is its indispensable tool. Neurological, emotional, behavioral, intellectual and cultural factors are intrinsically involved in the use of language competence and preference, native tongue and bilingualism. Language also influences one's own understanding of health and illness. Reframing the "minority" concept so that Hispanics can be perceived as a linguo-cultural minority can, undoub…

Career escalation training. Five-year follow-up
A study has been reported on 5 years of experience in a community mental health center with a career escalation training program for indigenous workers in a ghetto community. More than one-half entered the program during the 5-year period and about one-third had either achieved a degree or were still active in the Program at the time of this study. Although it is too early to assess the full impact of the program on career advancement, the author…
