Description
Travelling While Black: Essays Inspired by a Life on the Move Nanjala Nyabola explores the complexities of travel and identity through her essays, which challenge common assumptions about belonging and home. From Nepal to Botswana, Sicily to Haiti, New York to Nairobi, she shares her experiences working with migrants and confronting the realities of a world order hostile to human mobility. Nyabola's sharp, humane essays ask tough questions and offer surprising answers, shedding light on the joys and pains of holidays for people of colour. Her writing is both deeply personal and universally relatable, inviting readers to see the world through her eyes. Through her stories, Nyabola sheds light on the impact of colonial cultures and policies on black lives today, and what travel can reveal about our sense of self and belonging.
