By: New Generation Publishing "History Through the Black Experience" told through two volumes Two books bringing the Black narrative, experience, and contributions to a wider audience About the Book: Black people have always been part of the historical narrative, having had successes and failures, pain and delights, achievements and loss, adventure and invention, creativity and wisdom. We have Kings and Queens, chiefs and politicians, scientists, writers, singers, dancers, indeed we have always been present in the human story. These books shine a light on stories of courage, often against incredible odds, capturing experiences from around the world from people of black heritage looking at the great, the good, the bad, the beautiful and the ugly. These books bring the Black narrative to the broadest possible audience. It is not just for one community but wishes to draw all communities into an understanding, awareness and celebration of an underrepresented aspect of history. Hanging on what happened on this day throughout the year, the reader is encouraged to consume a daily dose of the Black story including the highs, lows, excitement, despair, challenges and successes. About the Author: Born in Southampton in 1964, it was the day before Cassius Clay became the heavyweight boxing champion of the world. Born, just after midnight, to Jamaican parents, part of the Windrush generation, I was reported as the first baby born in the newly-founded city of Southampton. I trained to be a teacher at King Alfred's College (Winchester University) graduating with a B Ed in 1987. The following 32 years saw me teaching Religious Studies, all at the same school. I loved teaching but did not allow work to prohibit my love of travel, literature, theatre, cinema, music (live and recorded), exhibitions and museums. Cowper's "Variety's the spice of life", informed my passions for life coming together in my work and ultimately the research, writing, and the book. The aim is to bring the Black narrative, the Black experience, and Black contributions, positive and negative, to a wider audience. Each day one is encouraged to read; January 1st to December 31st, to gain insight seeing the world through Black eyes, ears, voices and minds. With two volumes my fear is that I have only begun to scratch the surface of our collective stories.
