Writing Our Legacy presents.
Colin Grant is a historian and author of five highly praised books: Negro with a Hat: The Rise and Fall of Marcus Garvey, I and I: The Natural Mystics Marley, Tosh and Wailer, Bageye at the Wheel, A Smell of Burning, and Homecoming. He is an Associate Fellow in the Centre for Caribbean Studies, and teaches creative non-fiction writing, most recently for Arvon and Sierra Nevada College.
His latest book Homecoming Voices of the Windrush Generation is an unforgettable portrait of a generation, which brilliantly illuminates an essential and much-misunderstood chapter of our history.
Throughout this year of Platinum Jubilee celebrations, we are celebrating voices from from across the Commonwealth.
