Black White: Memoirs of a Nigerian Studying for a Master's Degree in the United Kingdom. (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781481776158)

Black White describes a young man's pursuit of higher education overseas. A journey that leads him from his homestead in Western Nigeria to the United Kingdom. It chronicles culture conflicts, internal dialogues and personal discoveries. As the title may suggest, Black White is not so much about racial tension but about the contrasts a young man observes as he transitions from one world to another. It is about how his identity is formed, altered and reformed by the socio-cultural currents around him. It is about how his concept of learning and education changes as he leaves one society for the other and how his blackness (an earlier unknown concept) often turned up the most unexpected twists. Black White is a personal story of aspiration, conflict and gradual enlightenment. It is a catalogue of the many dimensions of being a privileged man in a black and white world.
