مؤلف: Alan Sharp

Alan Sharp worked as a Community Development Worker in Tooting, South London from 2000 until retirement in 2018. This included several years of summer music workshops for youth at risk and providing seed funding for community voluntary organisations to establish new projects. He holds a BA Hons in Modern History and Politics with Economics from Southampton University, an MBA from Manchester Business School and an RSA Certificate in Teaching English as a Foreign Language (TEFL) from International House, London. He has taught English to refugees in a language school and to international business people. He has also taught French to British children. He tweets on Twitter under the username @chggenerations. He says that learning to see the world through the eyes of people of colour has led him to critique his own way of thinking. It’s helped him to gain a white, antiracist identity. He is learning to work with white people in solidarity with people of colour so that people of colour can find liberation from oppression in this generation. His first book, Changing Generations, a Black Studies reader, was published by BIS Publishing Services.
