This book was released on 2023-03-30 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Times Book of the Year A Telegraph Book of the Year A Guardian Book of the Year A Rock 'n' Roll Book Club Book of the Year A Guardian 50 Best Holiday Reads An Independent Book of the Year A Mojo Music Book of the Year A Resident Book of the Year A Classic Pop Book of the Year 'This really is a wonderful book for pop kids everywhere' - RICHARD OSMAN Using the arrival of the Spice Girls as a jumping-off point, this fascinating new narrative will explore, celebrate and contextualise the thus-far-uncharted period of British pop that flourished between 1996 and 2006. A double-denim-loving time before the glare of social media and the accession of streaming. The bastions of '00s pop - armed with buoyant, immaculately crafted, carefree anthems - provided entertainment, escapism and fun for millions. It was a heady, chorus-heavy decade - populated by the likes of Steps, S Club 7, Blue, 5ive, Mis-Teeq, Hear'Say, Busted, Girls Aloud, McFly, Craig David and Atomic Kitten, among countless others - yet the music was often dismissed as inauthentic, juvenile, not 'worthy' enough: ultimately, a 'guilty pleasure'. Now, music writer Michael Cragg aims to redress that balance. Using the oral-history format, Cragg goes beneath the surface of the bubblegum exterior, speaking to hundred's of the key players about the reality of their experiences. Compiled from interviews with popstars, songwriters, producers, choreographers, magazine editors, record-company executives, TV moguls and more, this is a complete behind-the-scenes history of the last great movement in British pop - a technicolour turning-point ripe for re-evaluation, documented here in astonishing, honest and eye-opening detail.

Download or read book I Heard What You Said written by Jeffrey Boakye and published by Pan Macmillan. This book was released on 2022-06-09 with total page 295 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shortlisted for the Bread & Roses Award An Amazon Best Non-Fiction Book of The Year ‘Essential reading‘ – The Guardian ‘Sharp and witty with moments of startling candour‘ – The i ‘Revealing and beautifully written‘ – David Harewood _____ A thought-provoking and fearless exploration of how we can dismantle racism in the classroom and do better by all our students. Before Jeffrey Boakye was a black teacher, he was a black student. Which means he has spent a lifetime navigating places of learning that are white by default. Since training to teach, he has often been the only black teacher at school. At times seen as a role model, at others a source of curiosity, Boakye’s is a journey of exploration – from the outside looking in. In the groundbreaking I Heard What You Said, he recounts how it feels to be on the margins of the British education system. As a black, male teacher – an English teacher who has had to teach problematic texts – his very existence is a provocation to the status quo, giving him a unique perspective on the UK’s classrooms. Told through a series of eye-opening encounters based on the often challenging and sometimes outrageous things people have said to him or about him – from ‘Can you rap?‘ and ‘Have you been in prison?‘ to ‘Stephen who?‘ – Boakye reflects with passion and wit on what he has found out about the presumptions, silences and distortions that underpin the experience of black students and teachers. _____ ‘Hugely important‘ – Baroness Lawrence ‘Deeply compelling, intellectually rigorous and essential‘ – Nels Abbey ‘Makes a powerful case‘ – Rt Hon Lady Hale
