'Fantastic ... the most important book on Black British history' -
Akala Black People in the British Empire is a challenge to the
official version of British history. It tells the story of
Britain's exploitation and oppression of its subject peoples in its
colonies, and in particular the people of Africa, Asia and
Australasia Peter Fryer reveals how the ideology of racism was used
as justification for acquiring and expanding the Empire; how the
British Industrial Revolution developed out of profits from the
slave trade; and how the colonies were deliberately
de-industrialised to create a market for British manufacturers. In
describing the frequency and the scale of revolts by subject
peoples against slavery and foreign domination - and the brutality
used in crushing them - Peter Fryer exposes the true history of
colonialism, and restores to Black people their central role in
Britain's past.
