The Windrush crisi has not only highlighted the struggles of Caribbean immigrants to the UK but the personal stories of those who came to Britain in 1948. In a new book, author David Matthews explores some of those stories – with their accents intact
A QUARTER OF a century ago, when I started out as a journalist with Caribbean Times – the weekly newspaper which, for many years, gave The Voice a run for its money as ‘Britain’s best black newspaper’ – people seldom, if ever, spoke about a “Windrush scandal”.
That’s not to say that the horrors of summary deportations, family break-ups, financial catastrophe, denial of healthcare and the like did not exist for those of an African Caribbean background who, for whatever reason, found themselves without papers.
