Hakim Adi

Hakim Adi is a British-Nigerian historian, author and Professor of the History of Africa and the African Diaspora at the University of Chichester. He is one of the leading scholars of the African and Caribbean presence in Britain and the global history of Pan-Africanism. His academic work has been instrumental in bringing the overlooked history of Black people in Britain to wider public awareness. African and Caribbean People in Britain is his accessible introduction to the long history of people of African and Caribbean heritage in the British Isles, tracing their presence from Roman times to the present day. The book challenges the common assumption that Black British history begins with the Windrush generation, revealing a much deeper and richer story. Available as both a book and an audiobook, African and Caribbean People in Britain offers essential listening and reading for anyone who wants to understand the true breadth and depth of Black British history.
