Transatlantic Liverpool - Shades of the Black Atlantic

Written within the perspective of Africana critical studies, this book presents a transatlantic voyage and the depths of historical Black experience in Liverpool, England. The author addresses the narrative of the Black Atlantic propounded by Paul Gilroy and further reveals a firsthand account of a largely hidden aspect of Black British history.
