This week, we welcome Tony Fairweather who opened one of the first Black bookshops in the UK, before going on to work for The Voice newspaper, where he managed The Voice book club. In 1989 he founded ‘The Write Thing’, an events company established to promote Black authors such as Bernardine Evaristo, Dr Maya Angelou, Alice Walker, Toni Morrison, Terry McMillan, and many more. Now an author himself, he is also the founder and curator of the Windrush Collection, a touring exhibition of artefacts associated with the Windrush generation. Links:https://www.windrushcollection.com/https://www.hoperoadpublishing.com/twenty-eight-pounds-ten-shillings-a-windrush-story-75th-anniversary-editiondebbiewilliamspodcast.comSupport the show
