“In history class, Mr Marsden asked us to write about an interesting member of our family. I wrote what I knew about my father's upbringing in Jamaica, using a word himself used - anglocentric - to describe his schooling. When my essay was returned, anglocentric was circuled in red, an 'No Such Word' written in the margin. I was starting to understand that those in the centre didn't need the language to describe their privilege.”
