CARF: the life and times of a frontline magazine:

A former member of the CARF Collective from the 1970s onwards explains the significance to the anti-racist movement of seventy-two issues of the CARF magazine (1991–2003), now digitalised and available to download on the website of the Institute of Race Relations. She traces the emergence of a grassroots movement in the 1970s which gave primacy to anti-racism over anti-fascism, pointing out also the tensions with ‘the Left’ over such politics, the various forms in which CARF has appeared, the collective way in which it was produced, and the ways in which the magazine conceptualised lived experience and contributed to theory on the changing nature of state and institutional racism.
