The one where you put the key in the door and you're home
The theme for this year's Black History Month is Salute Your
Sisters, and this week Emma and Nicole are joined by the highly
celebrated Kit de Waal for Mixed Up Book Club. Kit's critically
acclaimed novel, My Name is Leon, about a mixed-race, nine-year-old
boy who ends up in care in the 1980s was recently adapted for
screen. Her memoir, Without Warning and Only Sometimes is about
growing up poor in between three worlds, Irish, Caribbean and
British in 1960s Birmingham.
