Through a deeply researched and fast-moving narrative, Lee Lawrence seamlessly combines historical fact with his dramatic first-hand experiences of racial injustice to present vivid stories - from the Somali sailor who was wrongly convicted of murder in Cardiff in 1952 to the assault on professional footballer Dalian Atkinson and from the hounding of Notting Hill's Mangrove Club to Black Lives Matter - that chronicle how Britain's Black community has been mistreated.

Lee Lawrence was just eleven when his mother, Cherry Groce, was shot by police during a raid on the family's south London home. It was an event that would spark a violent uprising and dominate his life for the next 30 years as he fought for justice and for the police to admit their wrongdoing.



Though there remains much work to be done, Lee Lawrence is also an inspiring guide who highlights the many positive changes that have taken place and outlines those still needing to be enacted. Against the backdrop of the hard-learned lessons of years gone by, The Colour of Injustice also lays the foundation for a pathway to the future to move towards a truly anti-racist society.©2025 Lee Lawrence Racisme et discrimination Sciences sociales

If you want to rid the world of the pernicious evil that is racism you need to study its history, understand the need to apologise for it, and be active in eradicating it. If you want to help, whatever you choose to do, start by reading Lee's brilliant book
