Reviews

Monrose's Black Men in Britain provides an in-depth qualitative study exploring the lives of Black men of the post-Windrush generation. Rich with participants' narratives, and written in a lucid and engaging style, Monrose uses formal interviews with ten participants, and unstructured exchanges with thirty participants, to provide a counter-story to traditional academic and popular framings of Black Britishness. Against the academic framing of Black Brits, Monrose focuses on an understudied population: middle-aged Black men who grew up in the post-Windrush era. This empirical focus shifts attention away from the more regularly studied Black youths, and Black members of the Windrush generation. Prof. Ali Meghji, Department of Sociology, University of Cambridge
