Mulatto Boy
“I’m starting to think that maybe it’s not the British they see. It’s my mum. Not me. That maybe they never saw me. Maybe I was never a member of the team.”
Huvi is mixed race, born in Britain and a lifelong supporter of the three lions. But when he applies for his British passport so he and Sophie can get married in her dream location abroad, he discovers he was never legally registered at birth.
After trying to make things good, his British citizenship application is rejected and Huvi has no choice but to fight for his right to belong to a country he’s always thought of as home. Looking to his mother’s past for answers, he tries to figure out why she didn’t register him and finds himself questioning who he truly is; because if he’s not British, then who is he really?
