摘要

Back in the 1980s, the Brixton area of south London was one of the more dangerous in the capital. Away from the bustling Brixton Road and the lively Caribbean market it was poor, squalid and riddled with drugs. Since the 1950s, Jamaican immigrants had settled there in crumbling Victorian terraces and vast council estates; 30 years on, their jobless sons were on the streets. The English HQ of reggae and Ras-tafarianism was not a comfortable place for middle-class white folk to wander in. Still less, one might think, a white middle-class judge, whose cadaverous face and stooping shoulders suggested, correctly, a life spent mostly with volumes of the classics and English statute law. But in 1981 Lord Scarman, the man charged to investigate the Brixton riots of that spring, was often.to be seen there. He went without a retinue, dropping into schools and community halls to talk to ordinary people and find out what had happened.
