I came to England at the tender age of twelve. I went to an all girls’ school in the East End of London. During my school days black history was not taught at any school in the East End of London. I have a passion for black history and decided to educate anyone who wants to know about black history. This is my first book “Who am I?”
Secondly, this book is mainly for children, but anyone can read it, because it is an educational
tool. Whatever background or culture you have, you can enjoy reading this book. This will help
you learn about black history which is seldom taught in school today. It will empower black parents and their children to find out more about their history and identity. Parents and children can experience a connection of their knowledge of self. This book should help a black child or any other culture to feel that they can contribute to society and be what they want to be. It is an interactive book asking questions, so this book will be fun to read.
Thirdly, as a black woman, parent and a grandparent, I saw the lack of education on black history which inspired me to write this book.
I also put on events during black history month. I write poems and create hand made cards. I am at present at university studying counselling to help support my line of work. I wrote a black history folder for a little girl who started to ask about her identity and now she is accepting herself for whom she is. To get the most of this book please read it to the end. This book makes you think, so the end product is worth waiting for.показать меньше
