  3. Ethnicity • Ethnicity is related to culture, descent and a shared sense of identity (Modood 2005) • Therefore ethnicity is related to race, as well as nationality as well as religion. • Factors which have influenced people’s ethnic identities are immigration and globalisation. • In Britain there is much diversity of ethnic backgrounds this has lead to Hybrid Cultures such as Brasian (British Asian) a blend of different cultures creating an entirely new ethnicity.

  5. Researchers • Hall (1996) New ethnicities. Stuart Hall recognises how ethnic groups have influenced one another due to migration and globalisation producing hybrid identities. • Modood et al (1997) most second generation immigrants (Caribbean and South Asian) saw themselves as both British and Black/Asian • Les Back (1996) found white youths adopting black caribbean culture on London council estates. • Tony Sewell (1997) found Black youths developed anti-school and resistant sub-cultures based on rastafarian or gansta/hip-hop culture – macho, materialist – gave them status they could not get from white society.
