Photography and subculture(s)
The article now tells us that the BCA:


 * was established to document and highlight the changes in 20th-century British culture and society through social and documentary photography. Its focus is on photography and subculture, in particular working class history and popular culture.

Well, if it does what it does "through social and documentary photography", it's hardly surprising that "Its focus is on photography". When I think of "subculture", I think of the culture of minorities. The minority may be a large one: Here, does "subculture" mean working class culture? It can hardly mean "popular culture", though it might mean various ingredients of this.

This is bewildering. Could or somebody knowledgable please clarify this? -- Hoary (talk) 02:13, 28 January 2021 (UTC)

Subculture meaning minority groups who have a strong impact on music and fashion (popular culture) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ferrismail (talk • contribs) 06:49, 28 January 2021 (UTC)

I've changed to counterculture as this seems more appropriate in the context, counterculture such as mods, punks etc. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ferrismail (talk • contribs) 07:08, 28 January 2021 (UTC)
