Fashion: Meet The Next Generation Of Black British Writers Telling Stories With Style

In his upcoming book, Revolutionary Acts, Mr Jason Okundaye writes, intimately, sensitively and searingly, the accounts of seven men who shaped Black gay Britain. It’s both a riveting read and a vital exercise, transforming oral lore into written text while also carving out their place in LGBTQ+ history. But, perhaps most importantly, Revolutionary Acts poses the question: how many more forgotten Black histories are yet to be uncovered? What about undocumented accounts now lost, most likely for ever? This is why UK Black History Month continues to be so vital, an opportunity to both highlight and redress that erasure, in the hope that one day the very need for a Black History Month is obsolete.
