Skin Deep exists to present “culture in service of racial justice”, and the latest issue looks back over the last 11 years to present an anthology of its work so far. Mixing archive stories with fresh pieces, it creates a collection, “in which past, present and future interrupt each other… a noisy, time-travelling miscellany.”

 
In this issue:

• Speaking with the makers of Babymother, the 1998 film that showcased Harlesden’s reggae heartland
• Identifying the “slow violence” of the climate crisis, and holding the worst offenders to account
• Emma Uwejoma’s photography navigates the complexities of her Igbo heritage and British upbringing
• Writing at the height of the Black Lives Matter protests, Jordan T Jones on the simple beauty of an uneventful day
• And Akasha Rabut’s photography captures the street-parading traditions of New Orleans
