THE RUNAWAYS LONDON ANTHOLOGY:

DEVELOPED IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF GLASGOW RUNAWAY SLAVES IN BRITAIN PROJECT AND SPREAD THE WORD.

What were the lives of enslaved people seeking freedom in London like? What did they hope for when they absconded? Traditional historical research and writing cannot easily answer these questions: we can speculate, but in the end we just don’t know. Our not knowing, and our inability to know, is the raison d’être for this project and book. This collection of poetry and art creatively imagines the lives of all those enslaved within London in the 17th and 18th centuries, whose resistance is still palpable.
