Mark Christian's book Transatlantic Liverpool: Shades of the Black Atlantic explores the history of discrimination, stigma, and the Liverpool Born Blacks (LBBs) population in the city, providing a fresh perspective on the transatlantic and the struggle for acceptance in a hostile environment.

Publisher: Lexington Books


In Transatlantic Liverpool: Shades of the Black Atlantic, Mark Christian delves into a captivating Black British study, situated within the broader context of the transatlantic and Liverpool, England. Drawing upon his own Black Liverpool heritage, Christian adopts a semi-autoethnographic approach, engaging with Paul Gilroy's notion of the Black Atlantic. Yet, he offers a fresh perspective that sheds light on the overlooked or underutilized history of a renowned British slave port. The enduring presence of Black individuals in the city is intricately woven with a legacy of discrimination, stigma, and a community known colloquially as Liverpool Born Blacks (LBBs). Crucially, this book provides the reader with a profound understanding of the transatlantic, particularly in relation to the migration of Black souls and their relentless pursuit of acceptance in a hostile environment. This book is an evocative, passionate, and revealing exploration that captivates the reader's attention.
