Looking back at 1985 - a pivotal year for The Voice Voice40
1985 WAS an important period for The Voice newspaper.

Yet four years after Brixton, Handsworth in Birmingham, Chapeltown in Leeds and Toxteth in Liverpool burned, little if anything had improved. Margaret Thatcher built some new houses in Toxteth but the material conditions – poverty, unemployment and racism – remained. Tensions were boiling, and The Voice ran a frontpage calling for a Day of Action following a community consultation meeting. In an echo of the US Black Panther newspaper, we carried five demands including an educational programme for black youth, and a study of disproportionate deprivation.
