About this listen
A Guardian Best Book of 2020
A History Today Book of the Year, 2020
Renowned historian Olivette Otele uncovers the untold history of Europeans of African descent, from Saint Maurice who became the leader of a Roman legion and Renaissance scholar Juan Latino, to abolitionist Mary Prince and the activist, scholars and grime artists of the present day. Tracing African European heritage through the vibrant, complex, and often brutal experiences of individuals both ordinary and extraordinary, she sheds new light not only on the past but also on questions very much alive today - about racism, identity, citizenship, power and resilience. African Europeans is a landmark celebration of this integral, vibrantly complex slice of European history, and will redefine the field for years to come.

This is an absolute gem
This is an absolute gem. The characters, depth and experiences are incredibly gripping. It's so easy to get into these stories. I'd love to see some of these turned into biopics.
