Show Notes

This episode we will be discussing these five texts:

1) Letters from London - C. L. R James

2) Small Island -Andrea Levy

3) The Lonely Londoners -Sam Selvon

4) Second Class Citizen -Buchi Emecheta

5) Things Fall Apart -Chinua Achebe

I won't be spoiling any of the books, but I hope they will give you some fiction titles that help understand Black Britain.
