Description
A history book with a twist, structured around a playlist of 28 songs, listed chronologically. Each song is a jumping off point for social, political and historical analysis, tracking key moments in black history and exploring the emotional impact of both the songs and the artists who performed them. The book redefines British history, the Empire and post colonialism, and invites readers to immerse themselves in music and think again about the narratives they have been taught up to now.
