Taylor was educated at Moseley Grammar School and later studied English Literature and Law at Keele University before moving to London to pursue a career in Law. He was called to the Bar in 1978 and began a successful career as a Barrister. In 1981 he married his first wife, Jean Katherine Binysh, a pediatrician, with whom he had three children.\nTaylor became involved in politics in 1990 when he was named special advisor to the Home Secretary and the Home Office Ministers in the Conservative government of Prime Minister John Major.\u00A0 In 1992, as the Conservative candidate, he contested but lost the parliamentary seat for Cheltenham.\u00A0 There was significant opposition to his candidacy from members of his own party because of his race. The notoriety of the election, however, gave Taylor the opportunity to work in television where he was invited to host a national morning show giving viewers legal advice. He later became a producer for the BBC. \nIn 1996 Taylor was offered and accepted a life peerage from the Government. He was created Baron Taylor of Warwick in the County of Warwickshire by Queen Elizabeth II and became the youngest person and the first person of African ancestry to sit in the House of Lords. In 1997 Taylor introduced a Bill into the House that later became the Criminal Evidence (Amendment) Act of 1997. \nTaylor also held several board and committee memberships including: Greater London Further Education Funding Council; Vice-President, British Board of Film Classification; and the Independent Football Commission.

In the early 1970s he served as chairman of the department of comparative literature at the State University of New York at Stony Brook.

It was given on September 21, 1832 in Franklin Hall in Boston, the meeting site of the new England Anti-Slavery Society. Although as an abolitionist, she usually attacked slavery, in this address she condemns the attitude that denied black women education and prohibited their occupational advancement. In fact she argues that Northern African American women, in term of treatment, were only slightly better off than slaves.\nWhy sit ye here and die? If we say we will go to a foreign land, the famine and the pestilence are there, and there we shall die. If we sit here, we shall die.
