This looks incredible - can’t wait to get my hands on a copy!
We’ve gone to press for #ChangingHistoriesKS3 Expanding Worlds! It’ll be hitting our warehouse on 13 June so do get your orders in! In my 10+ years of history publishing, I honestly think this is one of the best books we’ve produced. Spell-binding narrative, stunning visuals and super accessible.

It really is perpetually disappointing that no matter your experience, your passion, or the work that you do, as a Black woman it is inconceivable to people right across the political spectrum that you could be anything other than a tokenistic appointment.

So I told them.
And now, years later, still nobody has asked me.
