The MacPherson Report

Sarah Best

6th March 2019

Twenty years ago the MacPherson report was published that highlighted the findings of an inquiry into the London’s Metropolitan Police force after the murder of Stephen Lawrence.

The author of the report, Sir William MacPherson labelled the force as ‘institutionally racist’, a concept that is explored in the Crime and Deviance unit.
