- The book is a pioneering project that appeals to the racial and ethnic diversity of African immigrant communities. Using Zimbabweans as a case study, the book explores why diaspora African immigrants in Britain should be viewed as products of ethno-racial identities and prejudices developed and nurtured during the pre-colonial, colonial and post-colonial phases of Zimbabwe’s history. Its findings were extracted from interviewing thirty-nine Blacks, eight Whites, seven Coloureds and five Asians in both the UK and Zimbabwe over a period of three years. Archived Zimbabwean newspapers and sources were also consulted to establish origins and nature of ethno-racial relations.
