The Heart of the Race

A powerful document of the day-to-day realities of Black women in Britain. 'Heart of the Race' is a powerful corrective to a version of Britain's history from which black women have long been excluded. It reclaims and records black women's place in that history, documenting their day-to-day struggles, their experiences of education, work and health care, and the personal and political struggles they have waged to preserve a sense of identity and community.
