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.

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.'
