Overview
This three-book non-fiction collection brings together three influential voices writing on race, empire, and identity in modern Britain. David Olusoga's Black and British: A Forgotten History uncovers centuries of Black presence woven into the nation's story, from Roman times onward. Layla F. Saad's Me and White Supremacy challenges readers to confront personal bias through guided self-reflection. Akala's Natives: Race and Class in the Ruins of Empire pairs memoir with social and historical analysis. Together, these titles offer an eye-opening introduction to Britain's ongoing reckoning with its imperial legacy.

About the Books
Black and British: A Forgotten History is David Olusoga's account of the long, often overlooked history of Black people in Britain. Drawing on genealogical records, archival evidence, and vivid storytelling, Olusoga traces connections from Roman Britain through the transatlantic slave trade to the twentieth century, showing how Britain's development was inseparable from empire and global migration. The book reframes national history as one that has always included Black lives and contributions. Me and White Supremacy grew out of a viral Instagram challenge and became a bestselling workbook-style guide. Layla F. Saad walks readers through a structured, day-by-day process of examining internalized bias and white privilege, pairing journaling prompts with clear explanations for genuine self-work. Natives: Race and Class in the Ruins of Empire blends Akala's coming-of-age story in London with historical and political critique of how race and class intersect in modern Britain. Moving between memoir, sociology, and history, Akala examines schooling, policing, and popular culture to argue that Britain's imperial past still shapes everyday inequality. Read together, these three books move from historical foundation, to personal accountability, to structural critique, giving readers a rounded understanding of how empire and race continue to shape Britain today.
