30 biographies include
the famous such as Bob Marley, Mary Seacole and Frederick Douglass, as
well as less well-know people; like Arthur Wharton, the first black
professional footballer, Ellen Craft, the runaway slave, and Samuel
Coleridge-Taylor, the composer.
Contemporary
people, from England, Scotland and Wales, represent achievements in
politics and the arts in Britain today.
They include Cleo Laine, Shirley Bassey, Cathy Tyson, and Oona King
MP.
Should we still be using
the word "race"? Why
does society see mixed-race people as black ? What is the one-drop rule ?
Why is cultural heritage so important ? How many mixed relationships are
there ? What
about the children ?
