While it would not have been unsurprising to see a black knight in King Arthur's multicultural court, few people today realize that this would be for the same reason there were so many black Roman colonists of Londinium. The noble and antiracist chivalry demonstrated by King Arthur and his knights traces back thousands of years to the most elemental hopes of the Roman people for a more civilized world, and remains relevant even today.
The Story of Sir Morien dates to those dark ages when racism and negrophobia were first encouraged and took hold in Europe. Children and adults alike will enjoy this immensely entertaining and essential chapter of the Arthurian grail cycle and will instantly identify with the young 14 year-old Sir Morien. But they will also find the story to be an inspirational expression of the enduring hope for a post-racist world. As history books are banned across the United States, it has never been so important to learn the reasons for the whitewashing of King Arthur's court and the Roman society upon which it was founded.
