The Guide to Black London

Discovering the City’s African and Caribbean History

A fascinating, comprehensive and fully illustrated insight into the Black presence in London through history

Africans have been in London since the Roman occupation and have been a visible and continuous presence there since the mid-16th century. Yet British domestic history struggles to place Black people within its narrative.

In The Guide to Black London, Michael Ohajuru and Renée Landell offer neighbourhood-level insights into the continuity and extraordinary impact of Black people on the capital's politics, culture and self-image. Street by street they reveal the networks of statesmen, writers, entrepreneurs, sportspeople, doctors, revolutionaries and others who changed the history of the city and the world.
