【#幾首歌 之 #國際留聲機 EP3】不喜勿電999：戴卓爾年代英國黑人音樂
【The Global Gramophone EP3】(Don’t) Dial 999 – Thatcher-era British Black Music
在這一集的 「國際留聲機」，我們將會以一個大家都不熟悉的角度，來介紹一個大家都很熟悉的國家 －英國黑人音樂和「英國放克」(Britfunk)。英國有兩百萬黑人，佔人口3%左右，但他們對英國文化的影響絕對不只是3%！英國黑人主要是1948-71年間移民英國，但一直遭受社會經濟壓迫，受到警政系統的針對，而戴卓爾本人的種族主義和右翼經濟政策，也使情況更為惡化。英國黑人深切參與了英國左翼在1980年代對戴卓爾的反抗，但也對新浪潮音樂的出現深有貢獻，並且引領英國重電子音樂的形成！我們在這一集，為大家帶來英國動盪年代的黑人聲音！

In this episode of “The Global Gramophone”, we will talk about Britain – a country that most of us are familiar with – from an oft-neglected angle, that of British black music and Britfunk. The UK has a black population of roughly two million, or 3% of the total. Yet the contribution of the black community to British culture far exceeds 3%! Most of the black community had arrived in the UK between 1948-71, yet they have been the subject of socio-economic oppression and were constantly targeted by the law enforcement agencies. Thatcher’s own racist attitudes and right-wing economic policies are also regarded as having also worsened the situation. The British black community were deeply involved in the left-wing struggle against Thatcher in the 1980s, and also made deep contributions to the emergence of New Wave music, and even heavy electronica in the UK! In this episode, we are bringing you the voice of the British black community from one of the most turbulent eras of the country’s history.
