Yet, studies show that throughout the UK, people from Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) groups are much more likely to live in poverty than white British people (Institute of Race Relations). It's a hard time to be an immigrant, or the child of one, or even the grandchild of one. 'The Good Immigrant' brings together twenty emerging British BAME writers, poets, journalists, and artists to confront this issue. In these essays about race and immigration, they paint a picture of what it means to be 'other' in a country that wants you, doesn't want you, doesn't accept you, needs you for its equality monitoring forms and would prefer you if you won a major reality show competition UR - https://app.kortext.com/Shibboleth.sso/Login?entityID=https://idp.eng.nhs.uk/openathens&target=https://app.kortext.com/borrow/324445 UR - https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/akl/detail.action?docID=5514813 UR - https://link.overdrive.com/?websiteID=900334&titleID=3254930 UR - https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/slamnhs/detail.action?docID=5514813 ER -
