Description - Britons Through Negro Spectacles by ABC Merriman-Labor

A riotous, witty travelogue documenting the authors' experiences in Britain in the early 1900s, from an African perspective

In Britons Through Negro Spectacles Merriman-Labor takes us on a joyous, intoxicating tour of London at the turn of the 20th century. Slyly subverting the colonial gaze usually placed on Africa, he introduces us to the citizens, culture and customs of Britain with a mischievous glint in his eye. This incredible work of social commentary feels a century ahead of its time, and provides unique insights into the intersection between empire, race and community at this important moment in history.
