Produktinformationen zu „Black Success (ePub)“

Tony Sewell weaves together memoir and polemic to explore the drivers of black success and answer these questions. Truthful, provocative, and often surprising, he traces black people's hard-won achievements back to their source: family, 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.

This book is the perfect riposte to the storm of criticism that met the Sewell Report on racial disparities. It is essential reading not only for Black Britons who are tired of being denied agency and responsibility, but also for anyone who wants a balanced perspective on race relations in Britain.

Autoren-Porträt von Tony Sewell

Born in Brixton, Lord Tony Sewell CBE has been a journalist, teacher and education expert. He was part of the team responsible for driving the transformation of Hackney's education outcomes in the early 2000s, and his charity Generating Genius has helped hundreds of young black people into STEM in business and academia. He was recently chair of the UK's government's Commission on Race and Ethnic Disparities, the recommendations which are now the foundations of the government's policy on tackling racial inequalities. He was awarded a CBE for his work on education and was elevated to the House of Lords in 2022. That same year he began his latest project, a farming enterprise in Jamaica.
