- The book draws upon two years of ethnographic work across dozens of cultural institutions such as National Portrait Gallery, Tate Modern, Tate Britain, and Black Cultural Archives in London, as well as in-depth interviews with thirty-two Black British professionals. Stemming from an in-depth qualitative research project, which centred the voices of Black professionals and their navigation of professional and cultural life, this was the first study of its kind to pay attention to the cultural practices and eclecticism across Britain’s Black middle class to provide a more complex picture of a social group treated as monolithic in previous studies.
