Really, really good — well-articulated and really accessible. The authors very purposefully make chapters short and the book as a whole is only 200 pages, which both makes it extremely readable and extremely impressive that it can engage with and unpack so many different things. Sometimes it suffered from a failure to define terms/assumption that readers are familiar with them (biopolitics is used but not defined; necropolitics, conversely, is described but not named), but on the whole I could not stop telling people about this text and suggesting the give it a go. A very solid provocation on the state of our present and the direction of our future.

An interesting insight into racism in Britain, particularly, when Brits think of themselves as “less racist” or “not as bad” as America. Also, fuck the tories.

Thought provoking and accessibly written. A wide ranging introduction to the frontiers of anti-racism in contemporary Britain. Whilst Empire's Endgame certainly doesn't downplay the scale of the challenge, it manages to present a rousing and hopeful outlook of how a better future might be built through collective solidarities.
