'Outstanding.' BERNARDINE EVARISTO'Sharp and grounded.' NEW STATESMAN'Compelling.' TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT'Timeless.' AFUA HIRSCH'Humane.' JOHN LEGEND'Impressive.' JEREMY CORBYNFor the last three decades, Gary Younge has sat ringside with the most significant personalities to impact the black diaspora and been on the frontline of historic events. He has witnessed the possibilities of change and the power of systems to thwart those aspirations. Dispatches from the Diaspora is an unrivalled body of work from a unique perspective that compels you to 'imagine a world in which you might thrive, for which there is no evidence. And then fight for it.'
