-----------------

As a Bolton teenager with a paper round, Clive Myrie read all the newspapers he delivered from cover to cover and dreamed of becoming a journalist. In this deeply personal memoir, he tells how his family history has influenced his view of the world, introducing us to his Windrush generation parents, a great grandfather who helped build the Panama Canal, and a great uncle who fought in the First World War, later to become a prominent police detective in Jamaica.

He reflects on how being black has affected his perspective on issues he's encountered in thirty years reporting some of the biggest stories of our time (most recently from Ukraine and Israel), showing us how those experiences gave him a better idea of what it means to be an outsider. He tells of his pride in his roots, but his determination not to be defined by his background in dealing with the challenges of race and class to succeed at the highest level.

Moving, engaging, revealing, Everything is Everything is a story of love and hate - but also hope.

This book is great and gives a good insight to Clive’s life and I understand more and appreciate what difficulties people of colour must have gone through and still go through. Thank you for enriching my life as a white man.

Excellent

I loved Clive’s recording and honestly believe that I feel more empathetic to the position of ethnic communities in our society.

The details and history behind the stories.

I felt that I got to know a little more about Clive, but it felt a little guarded/ safe. some chapters felt like they were heavily edited.

a dip into the world of Clive

Compassionate humanity and honest exploration of our fears of each other — a truly heartening and inspiring read. Will listen to it all over again.

A moving memoir of the journey towards acceptance
