As a Battersea boy with Jamaican roots, I was honored to speak at the unveiling of a plaque in Battersea Park today marking the time Bob Marley spent in here while producing his classic Exodus album.
The plaque was unveiled by @marshadecordova.bsky.social and the Jamaican High Commissioner

I treated myself to the new Ta-Nahisi Coates book, the Message.
Loving the start which talks of his first trip to Africa as a Black /American. With Senegal fresh in my mind, his description of the mixed feelings as he touched down in Dakar was potent.
What a writer.
