Theres a lot of myth surrounding the story of the Windrush. A lot of skewed information even in this short video. What actually happened was the Jamaican government were concerned about civil unrest due to high unemployment levels and so approached Britain for help. Britain didnt particularly want or need Caribbeans coming over, but did the right thing in responding to the request for help. As for contributions that they've made to Britain since arriving, I cant actually find out what those contributions are. Apart from an increase in crime obviously
There was only 1600 of them from the Caribbean came to fight in the Second World War as opposed to 4,000,000 British soldiers in the Second World War. That was only man there was no tanks guns planes nothing. As for them saying they came over here and fought in. the Second World War look out with being treated well that is romancing again I should think there’s very few people the that fought in Second World War came over. Because of Poland but we don’t expect them to take British citizens in big numbers. they need to realise it was a world war we were all in it together they’re not doing it for us we’re not doing it for Poland we’re not doing it for France that we’re doing it for themselves. They must’ve known if Germany won he would’ve exterminated all black Africans he was a fanatic so they were in fact fighting for their lives not us. The trouble with them is They always want thanking for things They haven’t done. But they will ever say thank Europe for what we’ve done for them considering when we found them over 200 years ago they were hunter gatherers but for Europe they would still be hunter gatherers today. This is certainly a rose coloured spectacle documentary of which there are many.
The events you describe were from 1956 onwards, almost a decade later and a completely separate issue. The Barbados government approached and dealt with some organisations like London Transport and some local health authorities directly; nothing to do with the British Government.
Have you noticed the ones that start the war are the ones that get protected the most. ( politicians ) You'll never see them put down their paperwork or move away from their desk and move to the frontline. And if a member of your family should die they send you a piece of paper telling you how brave he/she was.... bullshit
In 1948, Empire Windrush brought one of the first large groups of postwar West Indian immigrants to the United Kingdom, carrying 1,027 passengers and two stowaways on a voyage from Jamaica to London. 802 of these passengers gave their last country of residence as somewhere in the Caribbean: of these, 693 intended to settle in the United Kingdom.[1] British Caribbean people who came to the United Kingdom in the period after World War II, including those who came on later ships, are sometimes referred to as the Windrush generation In 1948, Empire Windrush, which was en route from Australia to Britain via the Atlantic, docked in Kingston, Jamaica, to pick up servicemen who were on leave. The British Nationality Act 1948, giving the status of citizenship of the United Kingdom and Colonies (CUKC status) to all British subjects connected with the United Kingdom or a British colony, was going through parliament, and some Caribbean migrants decided to embark "ahead of the game". Prior to 1962, the UK had no immigration control for CUKCs, who could settle indefinitely in the UK without restrictions. The ship was far from full, and someone came up with the idea of offering cut price tickets to avoid an empty ship sailing back to Britain. An advertisement was put in a Jamaican newspaper, The Daily Gleaner, offering cheap transport on the ship for anybody who wanted to go and work in the UK. There is a common misconception that there was an invitation for help with the rebuilding of Britain. There was never such an invitation. Many former servicemen took this opportunity to return to Britain with the hopes of finding better employment, including, in some cases, rejoining the RAF; others decided to make the journey just to see what the "mother country" was like. There was no invitation. The arrival of Empire Windrush was a notable news event. Even when the ship was in the English Channel, the Evening Standard dispatched an aircraft to photograph her from the air, printing the story on the newspaper's front page. The ship docked at the Port of Tilbury, near London, on 21 June 1948 and the 1,027 passengers began disembarking the next day. This was covered by newspaper reporters and by Pathé News newsreel cameras.[37] The name Windrush, as a result, come to be used as shorthand for West Indian migration,[50] and by extension for the beginning of modern British multiracial society. The purpose of Windrush's voyage had been to transport service personnel. The additional arrival of civilian, West Indian immigrants was not expected by the British government, and not welcome. George Isaacs, the Minister of Labour, stated in Parliament that there would be no encouragement for others to follow their example. Three days before the ship arrived, Arthur Creech Jones, the Secretary of State for the Colonies, wrote a Cabinet memorandum noting that the Jamaican Government could not legally prevent people from departing, and the British government could not legally prevent them from landing. However, he stated that the government was opposed to this immigration, and all possible steps would be taken by the Colonial Office and the Jamaican Government to discourage it.[51] Despite this, the first legislation controlling immigration was not passed until 1962.
Unfortunately there will always be people who discriminate the different, no matter if that difference is skin colour, religion, mental acuity, disability what ever the difference there will always be haters :(.
@Rob Don't be a bigot. IF you don't like someone because you don't like them fair enough, but, if it's just because their skin is darker than yours then you are a racist cunt.
Funny how most of them served in the R,A.F. In this country ,Not many landed on D,Day with the British .November 1947 the H,T,Almanzora sailed from Southampton to take those that served in the R,A,F, back home.
Let me add my voice of thanks... and also ask where you teach, Leo? 20 years ago I spent a year teaching English at the Lycee Technique Charles Coeffin in Baimbridge, Guadeloupe (which I think no longer exists). Loved it there!
Britain deport criminals such as drug dealers, robbers, shop lifters & people who have criminal records 🙄 If someone wants live in uk, have to have "GOOD CHARACTER" This should be for every colours😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀👍👍👍😋
And we must all forget what the Brits did to the Caribbean people. Killed raped robbed use them as slaves etc. And did they get deported. ? Ok they didn't have deportation back in them days. But isn't it nice how we forget.
What is wrong with people? I am increasingly ashamed of UK citizens. I had never realised we are so racist and the Nationalists Love it! Some of these people horrified me. They were all wonderful when they wanted them for cannon fodder, then suddenly they were less than dogs and they didn't wan't them any more. And we wonder why we have Brexit!.
They have always been there. No one noticed them because racists don't generally have much in the way of courage and play this stupid game where they espouse a checklist of racist beliefs and pretend they aren't racist.
Hogwash Mc Trump. I always considered that the perception and dislike of Johnny foreigner "coming over here stealing our jobs" and "the EU telling us what we can and can't do" are the prime reason for BREXIT. I voted remain, because I know for sure that being within the EU protects my human rights as a person of hue born and living in the UK. Strangely enough, both my parents, who are both retired, and came from St Lucia in the early 60's and still living in the Uk, voted for BREXIT. In order for one to have any idea of how this really works, one has to be interested and do lots of research.
Stop blaming the white working class they never enslaved any body we were in days gone by forst to work 7 days a week just to get enough to eat working in factors and coal mines our young men forst to fight in world wars as connon fodder and if you didn't fight you got the firering sqaud.so please stop blaming the white working class this from a white working class who worked as a coal miner and so did his dad and grandad
Slavery was as much to do with the white working classes as it was to do with the upper classes in the UK. For example in the 1700s rich landowners forced poor Scottish peasants off the land. This period is known as the Clearances. Instead of quite rightly feeling that wrong had been done and they would never swoop to destroy the lives of others for monetary gain, many, many of them decided enlist in the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade. They operated at all levels of the Trade with some even working themselves up to proud captains on slave ships carrying defenceless, starving, sick people in chains to a life of endless brutality for themselves and any children they were unfortunate to have. To this day 70% of black Jamaicans have Scottish names. Same with St Kitts and to a lesser extent on the other islands. The same process took place in England and Wales where working class whites provided the backbone of slave ship personnel and overseers on slave plantations where after spending a day brutality beating innocents, they would chill out in the evening by raping a local slave woman. So, please spare us this nonsense of about white working classes were not involved.
Lenny Henry says "I'm proud of my Caribbean heritage." Shocking to accept a slave heritage even if subconsciously, or you don't realise it. Why stop at the Caribbean particularly when talking about heritage? Henry, your heritage is African brought unjustly to the Caribbean as a slave which is ONE SMALL part of your LONG & PROUD African heritage. When Africa had universities the word school didn't even exist in English. Shocking that he goes back to only the slave part of his heritage!!!! Also calling Britain the 'mother country' is also demeaning, i.e. blacks aren't able to be independent, always dependent like a baby/child on his/her "mother". You don't hear Canadians, Australians, kiwis, Irish Scottish, Welsh using such phrase. That's because they are white!!!May be Lenny Henry should read Malcom X. I'm British and not black.
I think Lenny was lucky enough to take part in the series Who Do You Think You Are? But speaking on my own personal experience as someone who was born and raised in London with Caribbean and South American parents, grandparents and great-grandparents.... I have no idea which part of Africa my lineage would go to. At some point I'd like to find out but the reality is that most people who are of Caribbean descent, have no live links to Africa. It's very sad but it's not something to mock or criticise. The information and knowledge just isn't there.
Your language is very racist. Sentences like 'blacks aren't able to be .......' is a regular example of the statements racists always use. It composes of grouping every single black person or every single black society and then applying a negative often racist attribute against the whole group. This is quite clearly wrong. I know of black nations that are independent. I even know of black people who are not dependent on their parents. I guess you know some black people like this, but as a racist you dare not say it.
"Massive contribution" to British society by "Windrush generation"? So nothing to do with unlawful drugs, knife offences, hostility and lawlessness on British streets then?
Yes a massive contribution. We were invited to fill sectors of the economy that simply had so few people like transport, NHS, factories etc. Those negative things you mentioned also apply to mostly white areas of the UK. I lived in Scotland for 4 years and saw all of what you mentioned and much more - all of it committed by whites.
John Benson urm no..it is also mainly by choice..they love that lifestyle...they have options..but choose to not take them..and will use the very excuses your expressing here..the “I’m black so I can’t get hired” bs...
Nothing to do with that at all. Try thinking the NHS, Transport, Factory work of all kinds. Try thinking about the soldiers that have fought in every UK war since and pre 1945, some of whom have gained the highest military honours.
THE BLACK CARIBBEAN CONTRIBUTION WAS NEGLIGIBLE TO BRITAIN. THEY JOINED FOR MONEY & TO GET OFF THOSE ISLANDS, MINISCULE NUMBERS WERE PILOTS, NOT 20,000 AS IS SUGGESTED HERE. THE WHITE COMMONWEALTH DOMINIONS WERE KEY CONTRIBUTORS. MASS NON-WHITE IMMIGRATION TO BRITAIN = THE DEATH OF BRITAIN. THE INDIGENOUS BRITISH WERE NOT, ARE NOT & WILL NEVER BE ASKED AS TO WHETHER THEY WANTED THIS TO HAPPEN. FYI: MY ANGLO-INDIAN DAD, UNLIKE THE WINDRUSH INTAKE WAS NOT GIVEN A THING - HE HAD ABSOLUTELY NO PLACE TO GO TO AND HAD TO FIND HIS OWN ACCOMODATION.. HE ARRIVED IN JANUARY 1954 AT 16 WITH NOTHING. HE HAD A RIGHT TO BE IN BRITAIN AS HIS FATHER WAS ENGLISH. HE EXPECTED NOTHING. HE NEVER ASKED FOR ANYTHING & WORKED INCREDIBLY HARD FOR WHAT HE GOT. LENNY HENRY IS A SELF RIGHTEOUS, RACIST SPOUTING, RESENTFUL, DEMANDING, ARROGANT BLACK MAN. SHAME ON YOU FOR BEING SO HENRY.
This tragedy of Forced Mass Uncontrolled Migration that was Forced upon the Indigenous White British people was not only a Tragedy to White British Communities but also very cruel & unfair to West Indian Blacks & subsequent Foreigners who were allowed to make Britain there home & who were invited to the UK illegally by the British Government of the day just for Political votes for the Labour Party an absolute injustice without asking the British people first. FORCED MULTICULTURALISM was always going to fail on a monumental scale. White British people are now in the process of taking there Country & Birthright back from what the Government have forced upon them and rightly so.
😂😂😂 the British couldn't build Britain after the war and who do you think built the UK? You call yourself British but don't know your history which means you are not British. You are as racist as the Tories and the home office.
Judge Jury, people of the Commonwealth were invited here because this country needed rebuilding after the 2nd world war. My parents were begged to come here and work, because there was a skill shortage. Without out contribution, Britain would resemble a 3rd world country. Britain was heavily in debt. Please learn your history, the Windrush generation were already British citizens when they arrived here and were invited to work in the so called ‘Mother Land’. Incidentally, I find this white supremacist ideology bewildering. You invaded and destroyed our lands in Africa. We had no freedom on our own continent and were labelled as not being human. ‘Racism is an illness, are you sick.’
Excellent, interesting and informative. This should be on the mainstream history curriculum. Thanks for posting
Like if from history class
At least this clip does not try and perpetuate the myth that the Windrush passengers were invited here....

At their own expense !! Remember that especially
Why, They came here to make a better life for themselves; who should have paid?!
@@johno4521 and that'd exactly the point I was making........
@@johno4521 the corporate and large employers who extrapolated them!
if i were Born in those days of the windrush i definitely would never fight any war for great Britain. you make your war fight's it yourself
I agree
