Description
From Edward Enninful to Stormzy, Little Simz to Idris Elba – everywhere you look, the impact of Black African culture is irrefutable. Settlers is a vivid, essential new portrait of London and modern Britain.
British-Nigerian journalist Jimi Famurewa invites you to journey with him into the hidden yet vibrant world of Black African London. Seeking to understand the ties that bind African Londoners together and link them with their home countries, he visits their places of worship, sits down at their tables, frequents their businesses and joins them in moments of celebration and struggle.
As he listens to their stories – stories of success, and of discrimination – and shares his own, he reveals an unseen side of London and celebrates what it means to be Black, African and British today.
