Description
In this powerful and insightful work, Akala draws on his personal experiences and extensive historical research to explore the enduring legacy of the British Empire. He masterfully weaves together a coming-of-age narrative with a critical examination of how race and class have been shaped by Britain's colonial past. The book challenges dominant historical narratives, revealing how power structures influence the way history is written and remembered. It offers a compelling perspective on how these forces continue to impact society today, particularly for those from working-class and minority backgrounds.
