The Necktie Man: The Sentimental Journey of a Windrush Teenager & Trade Union Pioneer Navel Clarke

He was just a boy when the opportunity to experience life in the leading first world country presented itself. Leaving the comfort and security of a familiar place, Navel answered the call and journeyed to a cold, and somewhat unfriendly place.
Over the years, even as he gave up his dream of becoming a mechanical engineer, he embraced an even more important role: pioneer and trendsetter for people of his color.
But somehow, having succeeded at that, in fine style too, the annals of history are bereft of his accomplishments. Having a vision and working hard at it are important, specifically taking steps to preserve your legacy, especially if you happen to achieve your greatness in 'another country'.
