Synopsis

Written by a child of the Windrush generation, Voices of Windrush is the definitive book on the Windrush scandal.

With over twenty first-hand accounts from men, women and children of Windrush, this will be the first book to shed light on the true impact of one of the most disastrous and damaging scandals in recent memory, and give a platform to those most affected - those whose voices have yet to be truly heard. Their stories provide intimate, personal and moving perspective on what it means to be black in Britain today, and the heartache the 'hostile environment policy' our government has created has meant for those who have called this country home for half a century and more.

At once a nostalgic treasure trove of human interest which unearths the real lives behind the headlines, a critical lens turned upon the establishment, and a celebration of the importance of black culture and history in Britain, Voices of Windrush is as diverse and absorbing as the stories brought to life in it. It is the most important book of its kind to be published this year.
