The Guide to Black London by Michael Ohajuru

Africans have been in London since the Roman occupation and have been a visible and continuous presence there since the mid-16th century. Yet British domestic history struggles to place Black people within its narrative. In The Guide to Black London, S. I.

The Guide to Black London will be published by September publishing in March 2023
