Boy
A true story of love, loss, survival and finding your voice.
Before the roads. Before the raves. Before the reputation. Before the man.
There was just the boy. A black child raised in a white seaside town, searching for somewhere-anywhere-to belong.
This is a journey through the silence, the secrets, and the scars.
From fishing trips and foster care to carnival, sound systems, fistfights, and murders, Boy is a raw, unforgettable memoir of identity, abandonment, and the power of being seen.
Told with brutal honesty, unexpected humour, and deep reflection, this is more than a story about growing up – it’s about rising up. A reflective therapy for me, the writer and an invitation for you, the reader, to walk every step of the journey with me.
It’s about finding light where there was none, and a voice where there was silence.
Some memories leave bruises while some build armour. Some do both.
If I’d known I’d grow up feeling like I had no identity…
Abused by those I loved…
Witnessing death first-hand…
Thinking I was the only Black kid in the world…
Feeling like I didn’t belong – anywhere…
You know what? I wouldn’t change a damn thing.
Because all of it made me who I am today.
When you find the boy…. you will discover the man!
