BY THE WINNER OF THE ORWELL PRIZE FOR JOURNALISM 2023 *Includes additional material* A powerful collection of journalism on race, racism and black life and death from one of the nation's leading political voices. 'Outstanding.' BERNARDINE EVARISTO 'Sharp and grounded.' NEW STATESMAN 'Compelling.' TIMES LITERARY SUPPLEMENT 'Timeless.' AFUA HIRSCH 'Humane.' JOHN LEGEND 'Impressive.' JEREMY CORBYN For the last three decades, Gary Younge has sat ringside with the most significant personalities to impact the black diaspora and been on the frontline of historic events. He has witnessed the possibilities of change and the power of systems to thwart those aspirations. Dispatches from the Diaspora is an unrivalled body of work from a unique perspective that compels you to 'imagine a world in which you might thrive, for which there is no evidence. And then fight for it.'
