Black British Lives Matter: A Clarion Call for Equality
by Lenny Henry and Marcus Ryder (Editors) - £9.99 Faber & Faber (2022)
paperback
ISBN 13: 9780571368518 | ISBN 10: 0571368514
This is more than a book – it’s an incitement to change people’s perceptions.
Featuring essays from David Olusoga, Dawn Butler MP, Kit de Waal, Kwame Kwei-Armah, and many more.
In response to the international outcry at George Floyd’s death, Lenny Henry and Marcus Ryder have commissioned this collection of essays to discuss how and why we need to fight for Black lives to matter – not just for Black people but for society as a whole.
Recognising Black British experience within the Black Lives Matter movement, nineteen prominent Black figures explain why Black lives should be celebrated when too often they are undervalued. Drawing from personal experience, they stress how Black British people have unique perspectives and experiences that enrich British society and the world; how Black lives are far more interesting and important than the forces that try to limit it.
