“This is a wonderful collection of accounts that celebrate the lives of Black working class people who have stood up against the racism of the state. They show that by being organised and working in solidarity with others we can win.” NAHELLA ASHRAF
“This is an excellent, essential resource, guaranteed to inspire young people with its list of Black role models and heroes associated with the north-west. JOHN MORGAN, Manchester District Secretary, National Education Union (NEU)
Manchester has a rich history of Black people in struggle that is rarely acknowledged. This book is a great contribution to remembering this past and the agency of key individuals – through developing our knowledge we will strengthen our anti racist movement today. Dr SHIRIN HIRSCH, historian at Manchester Metropolitan University
