The Colour of Home
Growing Up in 1970s Britain
Book • 2026
Sajid Javid's intimate memoir traces his journey from a frightened child facing racist taunts like 'Run, Paki, run' in Rochdale's underpasses and streets, to becoming a leading politician.
It vividly depicts continuous racism—from graffiti on his father's shop to school humiliations and his father's fight against a colour bar on buses—while portraying a moving family portrait of resilience, arranged marriages, and aspiration amid 20th-century British social history.
