She also published numerous short stories in magazines. Her books were commercially successful, widely read by pre-adolescent girls, and influenced them. They were seen as disruptive and a negative influence on moral standards by some figures in authority during the height of their popularity, and in some cases were banned, or indeed burned, by headmistresses in British girls' schools. Brazil made a major contribution to changing the nature of fiction for girls. She presented a young female point of view which was active, aware of current issues and independent-minded; she recognised adolescence as a time of transition, and accepted girls as having common interests and concerns which could be shared and acted upon. She was born in Preston, Lancashire in , during the Victorian era. Angela was the youngest of four siblings including sister Amy, and two brothers, Clarence and Walter. Her father Clarence was distant, seldom involved himself in his children's affairs, and saw himself primarily as a provider for the material well-being of the family and responsible for ensuring the children were appropriately schooled in religious tradition. Angela was treated with great affection by her sister Amy from an early age, and Amy effected an immense, perhaps dominating influence on Angela throughout her life. The family moved around the mill towns of south-east Lancashire , following her father's work opportunities.

Brave young people are making their voices heard, on issues such as racism and police brutality. Despite having little money, they sent me to private school. I was one of just two black students. I was insulted a lot by students and teachers. I understood the teacher was being prejudiced, so I decided to rise above it. I got more involved with youth movements, including Amnesty International, and learned about human rights. I am working on a project to ensure human rights education is a key part of the school curriculum and I already teach human rights in my own classes. Human rights education is a seed that can transform our way of seeing.
