'We shall therefore confine our walk to Central London where people
meet on business during the day, and to West London where they meet
for pleasure at night. If you will walk about the first City in the
British Empire arm in arm with Merriman-Labor, you are sure to see
Britons in merriment and at labour, by night and by day, in West
and Central London.' In Britons Through Negro Spectacles
Merriman-Labor takes us on a joyous, intoxicating tour of London at
the turn of the 20th century. Slyly subverting the colonial gaze
usually placed on Africa, he introduces us to the citizens, culture
and customs of Britain with a mischievous glint in his eye. This
incredible work of social commentary feels a century ahead of its
time, and provides unique insights into the intersection between
empire, race and community at this important moment in history.
Selected by Booker Prize-winning author Bernardine Evaristo, this
series rediscovers and celebrates pioneering books depicting black
Britain that remap the nation.
