I've heard this before, in the exact same context, and i still don't believe that it exists.

Also London had its first Black mayor in 1913

You know, it's funny, I actually wasted time researching this. And unless I am mistaken (in which case I am truly sorry), you are referring to a man of mixed race who was elected mayor of Battersea, not London. Battersea being a relatively small, working-class, municipality south of the Thames. I thought it sounded too fishy to be true.
