Hello and welcome.
Im speaking to Jason Okendyer.
Jason was born to british nigerian parents in south London in 1997 and we're here to talk about his debut book, Revolutionary Love and brotherhood in black gay Britain.
It's an oral history I suppose of seven black gay men talking about their experiences in life.
And I hope Jason, it's a compliment because it's meant as one.
