After Windrush - Paulette Wilson's visit to Jamaica, 50 y...
Description: Produced by The Guardian
A letter from the British government classifying Paulette Wilson as an illegal immigrant shook her sense of identity and belonging. ‘Hostile environment’ policies years in the making meant that Wilson and other victims of the Windrush scandal had their right to residency in the UK called into question. She had been detained for a week pending imminent deportation though she had done nothing wrong. It was devastating, but luckily she was released before she was deported. Here we follow Wilson as she returns to Jamaica for the first time in 50 years, trying to make sense of her place in the world and rebuild a sense of security and belonging.

Gold, Silver & Slaves (Britain's Slave Trade Documentary
Description: Gold, Silver & Slaves looks at how the business of slavery was a case of slave-trading by complicit Africans, fuelled by the greed of African kings.
This is the untold story of the greatest slaving nation in history. Up till now, Britain’s place in the history of slavery has been as the country that abolished the international slave trade.
Britain’s Slave Trade reveals the shameful truth behind this liberal facade, showing how the economic, social and cultural life of Britain would have been unrecognisable without slavery. Britain’s Slave Trade explains how a middling European power transformed itself into the ruler of the waves, tracing the impact this had on the British way of life and taking in the Industrial Revolution, the beginnings of Empire and the birth of modern racism along the way. It also unearths startling evidence showing how many families that think of themselves as ‘pure’ English stock are in fact descended from slave ancestors.

Black is the New Black -Episode.4
Description: Documentary series celebrating Britain's black community. Episode one explores both arriving and growing up in Britain through intimate interviews with prominent black Britons. Exceptional figures from politics, business, sport, culture, religion and science share their insights into being black and British today, how they got where they are and their thoughts on what the future holds.The first episode is about arriving and growing up in Britain. A cast of distinguished black Britons including Naomi Campbell, Sir Trevor McDonald, Thandie Newton, Baroness Scotland, musicians Jazzie B of Soul II Soul, Dizzie Rascal, Sir Lenny Henry, writer Gary Younge and many others talk about their parents as pioneers who came to the UK in search of a better life for them and their children. What they encountered was a whole raft of new experiences from snow to smoking chimneys - as well as prejudice, verbal abuse and physical violence. Actor David Harewood recounts attending his first football match at Leeds United as an eight-year-old, which ended with him leaving before the match had even begun with monkey chants and jeers ringing in his ears. The programme is a tribute to the dedication of immigrant parents who, with firm discipline, imparted important lessons about being twice as good, working hard and rising above racism. Their struggle was supposed to make it easier for the next generation to come to terms with their dual identity of being both black and British. Full description Black is the New Black

Hate On The Doorstep - Panarama Part.1

In a shocking insight into race hate and anti-social behaviour in our neighbourhoods, Tamanna Rahman was pelted with glass and stones and threatened with a brick during an attempted mugging by an 11-year-old boy. Her "husband," Amil Khan, was punched in the head. Yet the head of the government's equality watchdog has said that having a neighbour of a different ethnic background isn't an issue any more.
Panorama investigates the truth about racism and anti-social behaviour in Britain today.

Muslim questions a Sikh - Dawah Man VS Basics of Sikhi
Description: Basics of Sikhi organised the Urban Turban Sikhi Awareness event in Hounslow. Imran Ibn Mansur Khan (AKA Dawah Man) from Islam Hounslow approached us for a short Q&A. It lasted one hour and was filmed. Note, we were not looking to debate them and neither are we interested in criticising Islam or trying to prove its flaws or even trying to prove Sikhi to them. Therefore, most of the conversation is revolved around the questions by Brother Imran (Dawah Man). We thank him and the Islam Hounslow team for being very civil on the day. As Guruji teaches us, we are all human and should try and get along in spite of our differences, as the greater good lies in recognising our similarities. May Vaheguru/Allah help us all to have compassion in our hearts and to submit our ego to his will and call upon his Name. Vaheguru! Here is a link to Guru Nanak Dev ji's writings on Islam (for a Sikh, this is Gods own view on Islam) http://www.sikhitothemax.com/Page.asp... - lets hope that the Islam Hounslow team may be true Muslims of this type. Vaheguru.
