About
"Some books I write for fun; some I write because there's an important story to be told. Colourblind is one of the latter. I am not a messenger (I reserve that for the fine workers at the Postal Service!) but I do think there are several important messages to be taken from this book. I trust you get them."Nailah Folami ImojaColourblind tells the story of two 12-year-olds Ajani Burke, a black Barbadian, and Alec Sinclair, son of British ex-patriots living in Barbados who attend Tri-Parish Boys' Secondary School.At first divided by Ajani's racist tendencies and Alec's aberrant behaviour, the boys are eventually forced to form an alliance which fast becomes friendship as they battle a common obstacle the school-based gang called the Tri-P Slayers.
