Black Teacher: 'an Unsung Heroine of Black British Literature' (Bernardine Evaristo) | 
pickGilroy moves to London in the 1950s to become a teacher & this book details the highs & lows that came with that. The dialogue of the children in her classrooms is written as they speak & its so vivid. There‘s such a warmth to her & the ambition & passion she had for teaching is inspiring. From not being able to get a job in teaching to becoming Londons first black headteacher - just brilliant, I‘d highly recommend. #nonfiction2023 (black sheep)
