Publisher's Synopsis
Everyone has a swim story.
This book is a chronological documentation in pictures of MY swim story, which began with the debilitating thought, "If my daughter, Lolita, ever got in trouble in the water and I couldn't save her for lack of vital water skills and safety knowledge, I would never forgive myself." The Blacks Can't Swim feature film documentaries are my revolutionary journey into swimming and the world of aquatics - giving Voice to and putting a Spotlight on my Black and Asian communities' swim stories and engaging with the aquatic sector to tackle inequalities, educate, change narratives and, ultimately, save lives. The music, 3 feature film documentaries, co-founding the Black Swimming Association and its pioneering work, hundreds of media interviews, news articles, and invitations to share my story. If I had a pound for every time, I was asked, "So how did it all begin?" I would have enough to own a yacht. Be inspired to give voice to your swim story!
