Manifesto

"Manifesto" by Bernardine Evaristo might be one of the best memoirs of 2021. 

The recognized British Booker Prize is fifty years old but Bernadine Evaristo was the first black woman to win the prize in 2019. Her history made history. And her history is written in “Manifesto”. 

From a childhood full of racism to finding her place in the local youth theatre. From replacing  sexual partneres of both sexes again again to finding the one she wants to stay with forever. And her whole journey from setting up a theatre for Black women to becoming a professional theatre-maker, writer, activist, teacher and mentor, Bernadine Evaristo is known to be today. 

“Manifesto” is a look behind the scenes in Britain. It is a book about race, feminism, sexuality and class mixed with the manifesto for optimism, courage, integrity and resourcefulness. 

If you are dreaming about making your mark on history, “Manifesto” will be the ultimate inspiration. Bernadine Evaristo is truly iconic and unstoppable and with “Manifesto” she shows how to be exactly that.
