Description
Voices of the Windrush Generation: The Real Story Told by the People Themselves
This powerful collection brings to life the personal stories of those affected by one of Britain's most significant scandals. With over 20 first-hand accounts, David Matthews sheds light on the impact of the 'hostile environment policy' and its devastating effects on the Windrush generation.
Through intimate and moving perspectives, this book provides a unique insight into what it means to be black in Britain today, and the heartache caused by decades of marginalisation and exclusion.
