About the book
What are the joys and pains of holidays for people of colour, when guidebooks are never written with them in mind? How are black lives today impacted by the othering legacy of colonial cultures and policies? Nanjala Nyabola is constantly exploring the world, working with migrants and confronting complex realities that challenge common assumptions – both hers and others'. From Nepal to Botswana, Sicily to Haiti, New York to Nairobi, her sharp, humane essays ask tough questions about travel, identity, home and belonging in a world that has become increasingly hostile to human mobility. Offering surprising, deeply shocking and sometimes funny answers, this is a powerful invitation to see the world through new eyes.
