Black and British : a forgotten history
Olusoga, David2021
Book
David Olusoga's 'Black and British' is a rich and revealing exploration of the extraordinarily long relationship between the British Isles and the people of Africa. Drawing on new genetic and genealogical research, original records, expert testimony and contemporary interviews, 'Black and British' reaches back to Roman Britain, the medieval imagination and Shakespeare's 'Othello'. Unflinching, confronting taboos and revealing hitherto unknown scandals, Olusoga describes how black and white Britons have been intimately entwined for centuries.
