Written with clarity and passion.’ Jeffrey Boakye, </b><i><b>Guardian</b></i><br><br>BLACK BRITISH LIVES MATTER is a clarion call for equality, from nineteen of the most prominent Black figures in Britain today. <br><br>Lenny Henry and Marcus Ryder introduce an essential collection of essays arguing how and why we need to fight for Black lives to matter – not just for Black people, but for British society as a whole.

It is both a celebration of Black British lives and an urgent, agenda-setting manifesto for change. <br><br>Contributors include David Olusoga, Baroness Doreen Lawrence, Kit de Waal, Dr Anne-Marie-Imafidon, Sir David Adjaye, Leroy Logan and Professor Kehinde Andrews.</p>
