Our government imported this woman…..

Ouch what an embarrassment now the facts are out there.

What a wally - these comments aged like milk.

Would she still say the same crap now the full story is out there?

You say withhold ? Well the family wanted him shooting at people in a nightclub and outside ? Withheld fron the public , Miss Ribeiro why do you think that is ? You should know seeing your so close to the family ? I believe i know as well ? It was to make the police look racist and that gangster look like an angel who had been struck down in his prime . It seems if i where racist i would be locked up for a long time ( and rightly so ) but if your racist ( which you are ) then you should be trusted and given a medal of some sort . Its a mad oul world we live in , well if you loose your seat in next election at least you have a hobby to fall back on , you can join up with his family and many like them and you ( im sorry to have to say it ) and become professional race baiters , Feel so sorry for people like youse , it might help to lift the bible now and again , good luck ! p.s. i watched a film last night on sky central call white chicks , its funny , its about 2 black fellas who dress up as to white women , i also find little Britain funny specially when David Williams dresses up as a black woman but alas its deemed to be racist by SOME black people like yourself and all the bits have been cutout of the reruns , its just a coincidence that the character looks a little ( well maybe a lot ) like you .

The joke is the British government recruited black ppl from the West Indies, promising great jobs and prospects then the police, supported by the judiciary, dished out prejudice on a scale that is indeed criminal. I was a young teenager back then and the police could literally do as they pleased.

'the brown and black faces in offices that deport you...' Such astute phrasing, John...

Absolutely LOVE your poem RAFEEF...... more BLESSINGS to you & the IRR NEWS.... One RASTA Love... Rajesh Semrete Selassie Aggarwal FRSA

So ahead of his time

amazing content, incredible history, marvelous archive! Thanks so much

Thank you Colin, Liz, Jenny et al - as 1 of those who as Siva said "rose on the backs of the youth who burnt down the inner cities" in the 1980s - your analysis solidarity and generosity have sustained many of us who have tried to make a small contribution to the struggle.

What a terrific review of history and commentary on current struggles - and all in just 19 minutes! IRR is 50 years young - and going strong!

I'm so glad that the IRR is 50 not out and still holding its position and batting strong

You fly with the crows you get shot with the crows, he followed his path

Top Tip: *_Don’t drive your car at police_*

“Families like Chris’s” should never have been allowed to settle in this country. They improve nothing

The same pattern with the police killing Black civilians every time: they immediately act like they have something to hide and eventually we discover that they did indeed have something to hide.

Liberalism is a mental disease!! Walk away from the demoncrap party indoctrination rTard

We need to build a campaign to debunk this entire farce called Windrush. No one has the right to designate people of the Caribbean diaspora who came here in 1948 and after 'the Windrush generation' and call their children Windrush descendants. We should all be rising up an d shouting that we want none of it. You are absolutely correct, Colin. There was absolutely nothing objectionable about the late Sam King wanting to trace and reminisce with others who made that voyage and landed in Tilbury on 22 June 1948. They could have met annually, or weekly for that matter. But to have that voyage written in history as emblematic of the beginning and trajectory of the post-war Black presence in Britain is more than absurd. Not in my name! Not in our name!

Thanks Colin - as ever helping us to stay focused on the big picture. I think Prof Gus John's open letter to Grove also helps to puncture the vacuous bubble that is Empire Windrush days efforts to erase the thousand year history of the Black presence and anti-racist struggle in Britain.

Thanks for this, Colin. It's a really helpful intervention to remind us of the Empire Windrush. Siva was channeling Eliot 😀

I'm 99.9% certain that this programme was made by ATV/Central TV in Birmingham, not the BBC. I was a member of the Here & Now team and worked with Paula Ahluwalia and Zia Mohyeddin.

where is the full interview

An excellent piece on the IRR and its contributions to the 'black' communities then and now. However, it was interesting to see how back then the conflict that had arose and how it was dealt with but also how it had reconfigure itself to best serve, what I mean by that was how it continued to hold Power (state actors etc) to account when fighting against racism.

Stop your Race Baiting. All Lives Matter

so...people entering a country illegally isn't criminal??? you people are a joke. laws are laws. crime is crime. just shows what a joke "blm" actually is.

This aged well. Lmao.

Who did the state of Israel "gain independence" from in 1948? It's a settler colonialist state which was founded on the destruction of historic Palestine. It didn't "gain independence" from the British because the state of Israel didn't exist as a British colonoy and it didn't "gain independence" from the indigineous population because it was founded by Judeo-European ethno-nationalist settler colonialists who were never part of a state under the "domination" of the Palestinians. The state of Israel is, in many albeit not all respects, a continuation of British and French imperial policy in the region - certainly from the perspective of the British and French states but also from the perspective of the Palstinian and wider middle eastern populations.

A Giant amongst us. So true

Id love to know the names of the various speakers, so I can seek out their work. And quote them correctly on anything they say in this video

Wouldn't it be 'The heart is where the battle is' ? It sounds like an unfinished sentence - is that on purpose?

Interesting film. 26 mins in, there's a mention of two police being 'convicted over the death of David Oluwale'. It's important to realise that although the police investigation (led by Chief Super Perkins of the Met) recommended murder charges against Ellerker and Kitching, the CPS reduced that to manslaughter, and Judge Hinchcliffe directed the jury to acquit of murder. They went to jail for short periods for Actual Bodily Harm on David. Also worth remembering that even that minor bit of justice wouldn't have occurred were it not for a police cadet called Gary Galvin blowing the whistle on his superiors, and other young cops coming forward in court to testify to the grievous assaults on David they witnessed. Google RememberOluwale to find the charity which is building a memorial garden for David, and campaigning over all the "Oluwale issues" that remain today.
