THE HIGHLY ACCLAIMED SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER

In the aftermath of the murder of George Floyd and the #BlackLivesMatter protests that followed, a rain delay during a Test match gave Michael Holding an opportunity. For the first time, he spoke about the racism that he and those around him have suffered. 

WINNER OF THE SUNDAY TIMES SPORTS BOOK AWARDS BOOK OF THE YEAR

Now, in Why We Kneel, How We Rise Holding shares his story together with those of some of the world's most iconic athletes. To understand the racism of today, Holding dives into its uncomfortable and unedited history. He tells the stories left untold about Black people's accomplishments throughout history and emphasises the importance of education as a tool to achieve equality. 

THE TIMES AND SUNDAY TIMES SPORTS BOOK OF THE YEAR

Why We Kneel, How We Rise is a powerful, poignant and personal exploration of racism - with a message of hope for real change.
