@broonee.bsky.socialDavid Harewood’s Maybe I Don’t Belong Here: A Memoir of Race, Identity, Breakdown and Recovery is excellent. It resonated with me on many levels. The book offers a powerful insight into his working-class upbringing and journey to Hollywood. #HonouringOurCommunities ##BHM2026 ##BlackHistoryMonth
