Description

How did the Windrush generation become so prosperous?

Why are Nigerians achieving so highly in the education system?

Why does Hollywood rush to cast Black British actors? And why are so many Jamaicans winning Olympic gold? And what lessons are there from these success stories for young black people in low-income communities?In this truthful and often surprising book, Tony Sewell weaves together memoir and argument to explore the drivers of black success.

He traces black people's hard-won achievements back to their source: family, religion, education, hard work, discipline and the property market.

He argues in favour of rejecting victimhood and low expectations and embracing high ambitions, drawing on a range of interviews and stories to offer a more exciting, sometimes visionary new view of black life in Britain today. Black Success is essential reading not only for black Britons who are fed up with a narrative that denies them agency and responsibility, but also for anyone who wants a balanced perspective on race relations in Britain today.
