"The Unwanted: The Secret Windrush Files"


 This comes just on time as I'm working on the issue: 
"The Unwanted: The Secret Windrush Files" 
 https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/live/bbctwo




I reported on the "Windrush scandal" when it happened last year but getting the whole picture over decades so strongly and deeply is a heartbreak. Hostile environments are made by people in power more than any voters, but with Brexit this has escalated so high I begin to despair... 

My country and my parents' country are hostile as well to so many people: Arabs, Muslims, Africans, economic migrants there; women, political activists, freedom fighters, truth seekers on the other side... 

How long are we supposed to live this way, like second class citizens? 

No one chooses where they are born or to flee conflicts/oppression/utter poverty.  

The Guardian review is title:

The Unwanted: The Secret Windrush Files review – who could feel proud of Britain after this?

Anything to add?
