Don Letts - filmmaker, musician, DJ, broadcaster, social
commentator, husband and father - has always defied conformity. A
British-born son of Windrush parents, he seamlessly pivoted between
London's punk and reggae scenes - earning his reputation as the
'Rebel Dread'. In There and Black Again, Don Letts looks back on
his exceptional life, which has seen him befriend Bob Marley after
sneaking into his hotel, join The Clash's White Riot tour as
manager of The Slits and become one of the UK's most highly
regarded video directors just as the MTV boom hit. Told in part as
scenes from a movie shot on location in London, Kingston, New York
City, Los Angeles, Windhoek, Salt Lake City and Goldeneye, There
and Black Again co-stars a cast of hundreds, including Joe
Strummer, John Lydon, Bob Marley, Chrissie Hynde, Chris Blackwell,
Paul McCartney, Nelson Mandela, Keith Richards, Patti Smith, Chuck
D., Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood. With reflections on the
Black Lives Matter movement and the highs and lows of personal
relationships, this impactful book includes moments of civil
unrest, live music, humour and political struggle. There and Black
Again is the refreshing and often unexpected story of a man who has
never been afraid to tread his own path.
