À propos de ce contenu audio

SHORTLISTED FOR THE JAMES TAIT BLACK PRIZE | THE JHALAK PRIZE | THE BREAD AND ROSES AWARD & LONGLISTED FOR THE ORWELL PRIZE FOR POLITICAL WRITING

From the first time he was stopped and searched as a child, to the day he realised his mum was white, to his first encounters with racist teachers - race and class have shaped Akala's life and outlook. In this unique book he takes his own experiences and widens them out to look at the social, historical and political factors that have left us where we are today.

Covering everything from the police, education and identity to politics, sexual objectification and the far right, Nativesspeaks directly to British denial and squeamishness when it comes to confronting issues of race and class that are at the heart of the legacy of Britain's racialised empire.

Natives is the searing modern polemic and Sunday Times bestseller from the BAFTA and MOBO award-winning musician and political commentator, Akala.

    "My book of the year. It's personal, historical, political, and it speaks to where we are now. This is the book I've been waiting for - for years." (Benjamin Zephaniah)

    "A history lesson of the kind you should get in school, but don't...This is a searing, thought-provoking book." (Stylist)

    "A potent combination of autobiography and political history which holds up a mirror to contemporary Britain." (Independent)

    I feel unworthy even to comment on Natives, it is so well written and sympathetic in it's portrayal of Afro descendant, post colonial expérience. What a delight to hear the stories of Akala, the artist and educator, in his own voice, his scholarship and intellect shining through each page. When I finished this book I started again from the beginning and took notes.

    Beautiful memoir woven into essential history
