- It’s been dubbed “the murder that changed a nation”. In 1993, Stephen Lawrence, a Black British teenager, became the victim of an unprovoked racist attack. The subsequent legal battle, which spanned more than 20 years, uncovered a legacy of institutional racism within the Metropolitan Police, leaving a lasting mark on the British conscience.

My two parents held Stephen as he bled out in the street.
They tell me that the police who later interviewed them were extremely rude, disrespectful and discredited their eyewitness accounts, even as they were supposed to be taking notes.
My mum and dad spoke to Stephen in his last moments.
the Christian couple?
Yea whatever
@@hudson7354 ahem TROLL, cough
Oh my, that must have been very traumatizing for them. Bless their souls.
You need to write-up all the details, even the tiniest .... And re-post as a new comment ....
Let everyone know the exact truth!
I read/watched somewhere that it took an unbelievable amount of time for the ambulance to arrive .... Shocking!!
..... While an innocent young man laid dying!
19 years watching the men who killed your son, laugh and spit at you. I do not know if I would have had this woman's strength.
thats the type of behavior from people in power that has the potential to create domestic terrorism.
bad behavior from police, going unchecked, is probably one of the worse things possible for social stability, just look at mexico and haites
Ain’t that inner strength!
@@getthegoods420 this is domestic terrorism. Terrorism is often used by violent racists.
Worse is to find out the state police and secret services spent time and money harassing the victim’s family because they wanted justice
@@getthegoods420 just look at Amerikkka
The British still have such deep rooted racism in their society, Rashmi Samant case in one of the recent case where she was hounded online after becoming the President Of Oxford Student Union, not only by students but even the professor who teaches as such a famous institution posted racist and defamatory posts on Facebook, the professor also didn't spare her parents, her religious beliefs while making such a post on Facebook. Racism looks to be in all institutions in UK.
Yup, heard of this Rashmi Samant case because it gained a lot of traction within India. Interestingly enough, not a single mainstream UK news outlet picked the story up (for rather obvious reasons that will become apparent) though many independents did. Exceptionally bright foreign student won a place at Oxford for her work and study on climate change at Manipal Institute of Technology in India, and in two years won an overwhelming majority of the vote to become the President of the Oxford Student Union.
She was then forced to resign two days after becoming President by relentless cyberbullying by racist and Hinduphobic students online. Unironically, they claimed to be offended and on the side of 'social justice' by trawling through years of her social media presence and taking comments she made out of context, or 'in jokes' between her and her friends from when she had a much smaller online presence. Not even her parents were spared the abuse, and were even doxxed by a member of Oxford's faculty.
This is why mainstream outlets in the UK has refused to cover the story, while India, Indian MEPs and ambassadors have been going hard on the UK government to act. Who do they side with? Students claiming to be proponents of "social justice" making racially charged and phobic attacks online? Or the young Hindu woman, 1st generation immigrant and a first for the Oxford Student Union being attacked online and who has been pressured to resign merely two days after? Not one of them wants to invoke the wrath of these warriors or further defame a minority woman and invoke the wrath of India. And not one of them had the balls to cover the story removed from politics, in a strictly moderate way, because objective fact-based journalism doesn't exist in the UK. Tabloid hysteria sells headlines and brings in clicks.
Personally, I find the University of Oxford's doubling down and the media's hear no evil/see no evil, ignorance is bliss stance to be absolutely appalling.
UK is not a racist country. Behave!
@@damianbylightning6823 tell that to ppl in ur country
@@damianbylightning6823.. no its not a racist country if you are white
@@lenworthgoffe4165 So, this British racism that is all-pervasive and infects all things, only visits the non-white?
How strange that this tide of racism has not provoked a reaction. In normal times, an action provokes a counter-reaction - true for physics and generally true of individual actions of people.
Do you have any ideas about why this is not the case in Britain's overwhelming racism and could you tell me of any other exceptions in history?
The Marxist historian, Eric Hobsbawm said there's always a reaction. When one side 'gets its history wrong' this provokes another side to get its history wrong too!
I don't normally quote Marxists - but I think he has a point here and I'd like to know your opinion.
The challenge with racism is that some people don't experience it. Thus,they don't have to face it , especially when it concerns institutions!
Not having to experience racism hardly sounds like a problem
Jan aert The same can be said regarding the discrimination of the disabled and mentally ill. The problem is racism is getting loads of attention while the disabled and mentally ill are once again marginalized, even in discussions of discrimination...
@@bruggeman672 fix the issue of racial oppression and you'll fix so much wrong in the world
not only that but the challenge of racial oppression is the pathology of those who have the power to exercise it. they are narcissistic, indenial and deluded. psychologists and psychiatrists have officially recognized the psychology of racial oppression to be a product of psychopathy. which keeps the issue in perpetuation using so much resources, finances, institutions and more to do so.....remember: it was racial oppression that enabled the development of much of those finances and institutions in the first place, you can literally trace back the roots of british and European companies and institutions to coloni@lism/sl@very.
@@ucanthandledatruth01 first that won't change anything for disabled people who aren't minorities, and second and more importantly, if we deal with classist, many of the other "isms" will soon follow. All lower class people are oppressed but not all oppressed people are minorities.
Brought a tear to my eye to be reminded that racism is still not dead.
@oldhippy Very accurate name. Who else but an old hippy would force their racism on other people unprovoked for attention?
Exactly, racism hasnt gone anywhere. But has greatly improved in recent years. Though so sad to see white people continue getting killed in South Africa for being white.
Racism serves a purpose. It div ides

The power of a determined mother isn't to be underestimated.
The power of a woman scorned is something my dad always taught me to never achieve! Well done Baroness Lawrence, you achieved greatness in justice and made changes within the law, but unfortunately you are still a child down due to such a tragic situation, I can't imagine the pain you're still feeling! No amount of justice can heal those scars! My prayers are with you 🙏 ❤
Mcpherson was a true lawyer. He represented what the system used to stand for.
This still makes me sick to my stomach.
That's one strong woman
They've messed with Stephen Lawrence's photo, in the original he's doing a black power salute
Took them 19 years to get Justice wow I don't think I would have waited 19 years for sure if it the victim was son or family, The killers wouldn't be walking around I'll be in jail and they would've been six feet under for sure.
Mother England and her racism is still showing!!
Justice for Harry Dunn.
Never forget. Never Forgive.
Poor young man killed for his skin colour
Met Stuart Lawrence recently, very moving person.
RIP to all the victims of racist murderers, Kris Donald, Ross Parker, Charlene Downes, the 22 massacred at Manchester Arena etc.
Never underestimate the power of love of a mother for her child. Poor mother lost her child what else she can loose now, every mother is a champion ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You should never have jailed anyone for this as it was a pharse.
They never put a number on it.
How many overt racists are there in U.K.
the last relation report said U.K. is not overall racist.
What I’m I missing🤔
This is as close as it gets to America
Well apparently there is no more systematic racism in the UK, a recent report says it's all been solved now and the UK is a shining example of diversity and harmony.
🤣🤣🤣SMH
rip to the young men who died ..shame on those boys
Killing a black boy seriously for his culture skin is just horrible
Stephen Lawrence was also involved in selling drugs and much more. He wasn't killed for his colour
systemic racism and systemic prejudice is rife everywhere !
I hate when people fatalistically say that racism is in some country's DNA. Country's don't have DNA! What a bunch of nonsense. And if there were a lot of racism in a country and if it were really unchangeable, then just give up trying to change it. But of course people who say this sort of thing won't give up, because they know it's not true.
There have been way more racist attacks and murders in the UK. Do you not remember the lunatic who drove all the way from Wales to ram his rented van into a crowd of Muslim worshippers leaving mosque after prayers, he killed an elderly man and injured many others? And what about Jo Cox MP who was murdered by a racist extremist during the EU ref?
Racism in the police department?......Gee!....What else is new?
British people: these cops suck
American cops: hold my beer...
I just came here to see the old shopping centre in elephant castle again, I could careless about Stephen ❤
Wow this is terrible 😞 so sad
Our government and authorities are the biggest OCG
It was so so so lucky that Neville Lawrence was painting the house of the editor of the Daily Mail........the gods of luck worked against what the Daily Mail usually stands for. The Daily Mail ACTUALLY was on the right side of history over this ....wish they would remember that when they are usually spewing hate.
I seriously understand it just breaks hearts my thought.
British police, no matter what you say about them, the best money can buy
This trouble has been going on for many years it really doesn't matter who you are
But in this instance the attack was racially motivated and the police lack of competence and failure to bring justice down on the perpetrators was due to race
It does matter
PEOPLES' RACISM IS ALMOST AS PERMANENT AS THEIR SKIN COLOUR. It will take at least 500 years (around the year 2521 maybe ) for just a little change in racist attitudes in the UK . it is very slow indeed.
The fact that the police paraded those ignorant punks around while letting them spit at people after they already committed such a heinous act was really sick..
Evil men & Evil 🐷🐷🐷.Disgrace🤬🤬Bless that innocent man🙏🏻
I am curious when we will see the same attention paid to the atrocities with which the disabled and mentally ill deal with daily. Even in discussions of discrimination the disabled and mentally ill are marginalized... Edit the system is discriminatory to a great many people but only the racist aspect receives any significant attention...
It was one event almost 30 years ago! They talk about this all the time because it was such a rare thing!
It happens all the time to white people!
cool it.
@@hugoehhh Exactly.
The way policy makers fix a social problem will always be different to the way they created it
I hope this tragic case does not happen again... but I feel like it will...but Asian edition due to the pandemic :/
It’s happened already. Just not shown to light other than own research and limited Asian IG pages
I hope they rot in jail
as N.W.A said, F the police, I'm not surprised honestly about this, you heard what Meghan Markle has said about the royal family and racism, I'm pretty sure that racist stance is adopted by a large group of people from the UK political and criminal system as well, I'm white, I'm from the Eastern European region and I really can't understand how can you hate someone so much based only on his color and culture... I'm really ashamed when I think about what our "brothers" to do the rest of our brothers which differ by skin color but are the same by heart and soul therefore still our brothers... black people gave us white people a lot of cultural gems and this is how we repay them?
Well...this feels very familiar...
"Then this happened...." The reasons so much is made of this is that it's White killing Black = Man biting Dog. Black killing White = Dog biting Man (comparatively commonplace) and just as Scotland celebrates poet Robert Burns because it's the only one they have, so this case is made so much of because it's the first and only instance of a White killing a Black in the UK.
So this was the Rodney king of the UK
These guys strutted on TV like gangsters but were just punks; surely they will be treated as such as they go to the "Big House."
Why caint you be proud of your culture and appreciate others.
Yes, you can. And since you believe that, I hope you don't play or enjoy football, basketball, baseball or any other sport that wasn't invented in your country.
Because ?
@G [] Thats because you are dumb my friend 😊 but don't worry I'll explain it. If you say you can't be proud of your culture AND appreciate other cultures, and you play a sport INVENTED by another people in another CULTURE, then you are basically saying you aren't proud of your own culture.
@G [] I know what the comment says NOW, but it was obviously changed by Google, in an attempt to assassinate my character.
@@johnnymcblaze wtf are u on about and calling others dumb coz they don't understand idotic statements? what the op is saying is it's kool to accept other cultures and also be proud of your own. so i can't be a fan of Michael Myers because im English but Michael Myers was invented by Americans, in America and the mask was made from the mask of an a Canadian?(don't quote me there tho im not sure 100 if William Shatner is Canadian)

It changed nothing.
Check out the song My Queen is Doreen Lawrence. It's named after this boys mom. It's by Your Queen Is a Reptile. It's huge.
"unlawfully killed" as if killing could ever be justified by any law that is not fascist and tyrannical in principle
I am glad the police were able to learn from the mistakes that were made. I would take our emergency services over any in the world any day. The vast majority of them are hard working and want to make a difference in their communities.
It's not changed, the only people who think it has are people who would rather not think about the problem
You literally go into the park tavern down in eltham and ask the old blokes in there they’ll know who did it and where they lived. Everyone in Eltham knew exactly who they were and so did the police.
just couldn’t prove it.
and you left out that there has to be evidence to arrest and convincing a jury to convict.

@@victoria9590 yes he was a wonderful teacher, such an amazing person too.
There was a case not long ago about a banker who the metro police were after him for literally doing nothing. They had the man for terrorism money laundering and all based on someone who reported him making the police file a case on him from thin air.
And then it happens again. And again. And again.

The video omits the fact that police corruption was also a factor. There were officers working the case that were connected to the suspects.
Didn’t know that.

Just like BLM. Exactly
Why you're not a racist?
Nah I think it's because people who live in the UK only ever see racism on programs like this, none of us experience it on a day to day basis like the media make out. People with common sense tend to believe what they see with their own eyes in their own towns and not what the mainstream regurgitates. Out of 70 million people your bound to find a few instances of racism... So the media will more than likely always have something to report on. Have a look at South Africa at the minute if you want to see real racism. I know a few that have had family members killed over there.
