SEARCHING FOR MY SLAVE ROOTS (HB)

Malik Al Nasir was born in Liverpool, a mixed-race kid who converted to Islam in early adulthood. Bemused by memories of racist chants baying for him to ‘go back to where you came from’ – he came from Liverpool after all – he began to look in detail into his ancestry. This book is the result as he uncovers a forgotten piece of the history of slavery and the role of the Scottish, Dutch and English merchants known as Sandbach Tinne & Co.
