About the book

A radical reappraisal of how we talk about race in Britain, by one of the most highly acclaimed young journalists at work today.

Chosen as a 2023 Non-Fiction highlight in The Times, Guardian, Observer, Irish Times and New Statesman.

"Persuasive and insightful... [Owolade's] manifesto for a black British identity, one that sees the two identities as 'indivisible' rather than opposed, is compelling and admirable, as is his love of his Britishness." Sunday Times

"Excellent... This is Not America lands us in that complex area called humanity, which, Owolade argues, is the best place for us to forge common goals" Telegraph

"Packed with illuminating statistics and potted biographies, This Is Not America is an espresso of a book - a short and stimulating affair that will leave you feeling smarter" The Times
