Simon Hudson was born in Southampton on 24th February 1964, to Jamaican parents, part of the Windrush generation. He trained to be a teacher at King Alfred's College (Winchester University) graduating with a B Ed in 1987. The following 32 years saw Simon teach Religious Studies, all at the same school. His passion for life came together in his work and ultimately the research writing for this book, to bring the Black narrative, the Black experience, and Black contributions, positive and negative, to a wider audience.
