Afropean: Notes from Black Europe by Johny Pitts
challenging
informative
reflective
slow-paced
5.0
This was really well written and as well as being about modern Europe I learned a lot of colonial history I didn't know. There are obviously lots of books about Black Americans and I've read some books about Black Britain but they tend to be very London-centric. It was great to read a book about different Black experiences that I wouldn't normally see or hear about.
