Conclusion. 330 $aThis volume provides a unique perspective on elderly working-class West Indian migrants in the UK, particularly examining how they negotiate their sense of belonging. Utilizing the life span gaze and including elements of oral history and narrative, this ethnography provides rich insight into the ordinary lives, migratory circumstances, social networks, and interactions with the state as residents in a sheltered housing scheme in Brixton, London. The author further compiles a variety of genealogy charts, providing a uniquely vivid scholarly analysis of the Caribbean migrant experience both in a "place" and through space and time. Ultimately, this work contemplates how communities face change whilst at once developing a local symbolic cultural site, navigating adaptation to new economic and social environments. 606 $aEthnology 606 $aEmigration and immigration 606 $aSocial structure 606 $aEquality 606 $aSociology 606 $aSocial groups 606 $aSociocultural Anthropology 606 $aEthnography 606 $aHuman Migration 606 $aSocial Structure 606 $aSociology of Family, Youth and Aging 615 0$aEthnology. 615 0$aEmigration and immigration. 615 0$aSocial structure. 615 0$aEquality. 615 0$aSociology. 615 0$aSocial groups. 615 14$aSociocultural Anthropology. 615 24$aEthnography. 615 24$aHuman Migration. 615 24$aSocial Structure. 615 24$aSociology of Family, Youth and Aging. 676 $a306 676 $a305.8969729042165 700 $aAllwood$b Audrey$0932039 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910863184103321 996 $aBelonging in Brixton$92096631 997 $aUNINA
