When I decided to start a book club that focused on books written by POC I chose this book as our first read for Black History Month This was because when I read literature that discussed the black experience they were usually written by African Americans The opportunity to read a book from a Black British perspective was invaluable While she Adjaye grew up in Lewisham I grew up in a neighbouring borough Greenwich Despite being born years after the murder of Stephen Lawrence the case still resonated with me and taught me that racism kills Our backgrounds differed only slightly but despite being born 15 years after her there were many things that I was fortunate enough not to encounter However I was able to relate to too many of the microaggressions she suffered I was still able to relate to being vilified because I am a dark skinned African and I was able to relate to how it felt to be treated as an other in British society the only society that I knew So thank you Adjaye for a beautifully written book that articulated an experience that I could relate to and that I felt so deeply I gave it 4 instead of 5 because there were some spelling errors and missing words.
