***LONGLISTED FOR THE 2019 JHALAK PRIZE*** A leading new
exploration of the Windrush generation featuring David Lammy, Lenny
Henry, Corinne Bailey Rae, Sharmaine Lovegrove, Hannah Lowe, Jamz
Supernova, Natasha Gordon and Rikki Beadle-Blair. For the pioneers
of the Windrush generation, Britain was 'the Mother Country'. They
made the long journey across the sea, expecting to find a place
where they would be be welcomed with open arms; a land in which you
were free to build a new life, eight thousand miles away from home.
This remarkable book explores the reality of their experiences, and
those of their children and grandchildren, through 22 unique
real-life stories spanning more than 70 years. "The story of
Windrush, is, like any other, a story of humanity. Of life, love,
struggle, hope, misery, success and failure. It's one that is too
often neglected in our media ... but this volume acts as a remedy
to that failure of story-telling, which I ask you to both savour
and share." - David Lammy MP Contributors include: Catherine Ross,
Corinne Bailey-Rae, David Lammy, Gail Lewis, Hannah Lowe, Howard
Gardner, Jamz Supernova, Kay Montano, Kemi Alemoru, Kimberley
McIntosh, Lazare Sylvestre, Lenny Henry, Maria del Pilar Kaladeen,
Myrna Simpson, Naomi Oppenheim, Natasha Gordon, Nellie Brown, Paul
Reid, Riaz Phillips, Rikki Beadle-Blair, Sharmaine Lovegrove,
Sharon Frazer-Carroll.
