Windrush Generation Arrival 75th Anniversary
The Windrush Generation began arriving in the UK on 22nd June 1948. Since then, people of the Windrush generation and those arriving from the Caribbean have contributed to and shaped modern day Britain, making Britain their home, raising families, creating careers and living out their lives. The Windrush generation are part of the fabric of British culture and society.
However, those from the Windrush generation have not been treated with the respect and dignity they deserve. The Windrush scandal broke out in 2018, seeing the UK government deporting people of the Windrush generation and their descendants despite having lived and contributed their whole lives in the UK. This opened up and highlighted the conversation around racism in Britain.
Join us for a discussion celebrating those of the Windrush Generation and their contributions while addressing the ways in which racism has impacted their lives and what this means more broadly for Britain.
