The Place for Me: Stories About the Windrush Generation

by Dame Floella Benjamin

“The stories of the Windrush Generation are the stories of how post-war Britain was made, and stories about the shared histories that unite people of African descent around the world. I am delighted that Scholastic recognised the importance of making sure that children and families have access to this precious history, and doubly pleased at the incredible writers that answered the call. This is a landmark publication that will carry its own legacy of education and inspiration into homes and schools. As the Managing Director of BCA, I couldn’t be more proud."
- Arike Oke, Managing Director of Black Cultural Archives
