Black, Listed: Black British Culture Explored

Taking a panoramic look at global black history, interrogating both contemporary and historical culture, Black, Listed investigates the ways in which black communities and individuals have been represented, oppressed, mimicked, celebrated, and othered. Part historical study, part autobiographical musing, part pop culture vivisection, it's a comprehensive attempt to make sense of blackness from the vantage point of the hilarious and insightful psyche of Jeffrey Boakye. Along the way, the book explores a far-reaching range of social and cultural contexts, including but not limited to sport, art, entertainment, politics, literature, history, music, theatre, cinema, education and criminal justice.
