I watch things like Small Axe and find my blood pressure rises because all these years later a lot hasn’t changed. Archive footage will tell you the same story.
Before Brexit because a thing again you’d find the same debate on a Kilroy show in the late 80s to early 90s.

Big 2021 and we’re still talking about institutional racism in the police, state, corporate structures and their mistreatment of black people. Archive footage from earlier than the 60s right through to today will show you the same thing.
