About this listen

Brought to you by Peguin.

This book is not just written to enlighten. It is written with the optimism that it may contribute to a willingness to dismantle unsustainable 500-year-old hierarchies.

After five long centuries, the roots of colonialism still run deep.

This is a powerful new reckoning with Britain’s imperial legacy, its transformative effects on Britain and the Caribbean and its enduring role in systemic racism today. And it is a call for us all to learn from the challenges and failures of history and to play our part in creating a blueprint for the future.

We cannot change the past. But we can repair the present.

Critic Reviews

'A very powerful account of the entanglements between Britain and the Caribbean, from the moment that planters first appreciated the profits they could make from sugar and slavery to Black Lives Matter and the backlash against it' (Alan Lester)
