Many of these 'deportees' left the Carribean as infants and grew up in the UK. Depoting Black Britons traces the life stories of four such men who have been exiled from their parents, partners, children and friends by deportation. It explores how 'Black Britons' survive once they are returned to Jamaica, and questions what their memories of poverty, racist policing and illegality reveal about contemporary Britain. Based on years of research with deported people and their families, Deporting Black Britons presents stories of survival and hardship in both the UK and in Jamaica. These intimate portraits testify to the damage wrought by violent borders, opening up wider questions aout racism, belonging, and deservingness in anti-immigrant times." -- ER -
