Wow. Just wow. David Olusoga has taken such an expansive and important topic and really done it justice in under 600 pages. Having watched ‘A House Through Time’ I knew he had a beautiful way of narrating the past, but this book is something else. Utterly heartbreaking, eye opening even for someone like me who considers themselves quite aware of Britain’s racist and downright evil history, Black and British is a must read for any Brit, regardless of beliefs. Such an important book.
