Sugar and Slate

Charlotte Williams

Charlotte Williams writes about her experiences of how "to be half-Welsh and half Afro-Caribbean was to be half of something but never quite anything whole at all"

A story of dislocation and self-discovery, it is both a personal memoir and a story which reflects the experiences of many mixed race people living in Britain.

Sugar and Slate takes us on her journey of self-discovery, from the small north Wales she was born in, all the way to Africa, the Caribbean then back to Wales.

The daughter of a Welsh speaking woman and a black man from Guyana, Charlotte Williams lives in North Wales, and works as a lecturer at the University Of Wales in Bangor. She is involved in a number of community projects working for black people in Wales.

Sugar And Slate was chosen by Josie d'Arby as her Welsh book of choice.

夏洛特·威廉斯讲述了她的亲身经历：为什么“一个半威尔士、半非洲、加勒比人永远也找不到她完整的归属”

一个关于错位和自我发现的故事，它既是一本个人回忆录，又反映了许多种族混居英国的经历。

《糖与石板》带我们跟随威廉斯一起踏上一次自我发现之旅，从她的出生地小小的北威尔士，一直到非洲，再到加勒比，最后回到威尔士。

夏洛特·威廉斯的母亲是威尔士人，父亲是盖亚那黑人。她生活在北威尔士，是班哥威尔士大学的一名讲师。她参加了许多服务威尔士黑人的社区项目。

《糖与石板》被Josie d’Arby(乔丝·达毕)选为她的威尔士优选书籍
