Black and British

Book cover for Black and British

Unflinching, confronting taboos and revealing hitherto unknown scandals, Olusoga describes how the lives of black and white Britons have been entwined for centuries.

Drawing on new genealogical research, original records, and expert testimony, Black and British reaches back to Roman Britain, Elizabethan ‘blackamoors’, to the black Britons fighting at Trafalgar and in both World Wars, and the American slavery upon which the great industrial boom of the nineteenth century was built. It is a powerful exploration of the fact that Black British history is woven into the cultural and economic histories of the nation. It is not a singular history, but one that belongs to us all.
