KingCribble Yes, I’m quite aware of that, and life has to progress but, I’m still sorry that things have to change so radically. I still visit Peckham, but often I feel I no longer belong there.
I could tell you some stories about Hackney. About ten years ago, my Nigerian friend lived with her three kids on a council estate. One day she said that there were gun shots and they went on for a long time. She and the kids had to get down on the floor for about an hour, until they thought the vibrant lads had had their fun and were going home to mum for their suppers. Happy days. Before you ask, no they wuzzent white gun slingers.
One thing I noticed there's barely any Caribbean's left in peckham compared to 80s-90s, everyone got shipped out to Catford. The people partying there now wouldn't step foot in that area at night back in the day.
@@tobiasgriffin4263 People never got murdered this regularly back in them days especially kids and it was rough and very poor. People got moved out the area in the mid-late 90s ,money came in and redeveloped the flats. New migrants started coming in replacing the previous residents. A few years down the line black boy's are getting murdered or stabbed practically every week and rye lane is now full of Hipsters. That's Peckham now.
@@equinox95 And those black boys are 100 % Nigerian and Jamaicans....not other black nationalities. jamaicans and nigerians in packham love engaging in gangbang/roadman lifestyle

Let’s be real gentrification started after the olympics from east ldn and spread to south north/north west It’s happening In most working class areas. It’s sad
It's been happening for decades and not just Peckham. Any area in London populated mostly by ethnics with affordable house prices and an abundance of culture will eventually be gentrified by the flavourless elite.
Also it’s not like the culture is going anywhere it’s just not going to be in London anymore ... It’s going to be all over the country and I’m glad that it’s going to change
@@ianblackburn2645 Yea obviously it's very multi cultural with many Caribbeans and Latin Americans as well. However, Africans (particularly Nigerians) are by far the dominant group in Peckham, that's why it's been nick named Little Lagos.
There are so many social similarities between African-Americans, Black Canadians and Black Britons, but most Black Britons have a stronger and more direct cultural tie to the motherland than us/we on the other side of the Atlantic.
Yea. What the others said. Most Black Britons are first, second, or third generation. Their parents and grandparents come from Africa, or the Carribean, thus the strong cultural ties. Whereas Aftican Americans have lived in the Americas for generations due to slavery,
@@smashb3766 American blacks aren’t from Africa I wish people stop saying this. Yes we resemble but we aren’t the same people. There is nothing African about us because we aren’t African in the first place.

@@gottagotag6980 And the stabbings have been going on for soooo long. #DamilolaTaylor Those murderers used to enjoy the services provided by Kids Company. What a waste of public money and celebrity donations.
The native Britons are becoming a minority and if we complain about it we're racist. When the natives also move to areas within their own country theyre also racist. Its all so tiresome.
This is such a big lie. English people still make up the vast population of Britain outweighing, by an overwhelming majority, every other race: why are you lying?
No, it's a fact. By the year 2066 White Britons will be the minority on the current trajectory. Please see the university of Oxford professor David Coleman research.. www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/white-britons-could-be-minority-by-2066-2137329.html?amp White English are already a minority in London and has been since about 2011. Have a quick search online to prove me wrong. You seem like a super nice girl. However, weather you like it or not, you're in fact replacing the English.
@@HenrieKwushue So because we are the majority now, its impossible for us to become a minority in the future? I dont understand your logic here. Our government imports 300-600k immigrants every year who have higher fertility rates than our own. Its well documented that the British are on a fast track to becoming a minroity, just do a simple google search, so why are you lying? This is happening across the majproty of Europe and America. Most BAME people refuse to believe it because it completly contradicts your 'White Supremacy' narrative.
Going to school in Peckham. We used to play football matches: Nigeria verses the rest of the world. As a teacher now. I will say generification won’t change the schools/haven’t changed the schools. The ppl won’t stay and raise kids here.
Exactly, it’s quite ironic that many young middle class people from small towns outside London and the rest of the country, move to places like Peckham for the ‘vibrancy’ and culture, yet don’t actually integrate with it or any of the long standing businesses/community that from the area, and then move out later in life when they realise their kids will have to go to the same schools as inner city London kids.
Etienne Bunbury I’m sorry when was Peckham and Hackney the same place ? I’ve also worked and currently work in a Peckham school, educated in Peckham and 3rd generation born in Peckham. I think I would notice if the demographics of my school - which is in the heart of Peckham has changed.
Sabotaz80, Sabotaz80, in the meanwhile they ruin the communities and take away every bit of dignity their members have. Becoming homeless and jobless while whyte privileged Play "now i wanna live here cos it's trendy" ain't no fun and games
Khabib cherrypicking Weight bully Well...Never taken benefits in my life, never needed them, but for those that are on them, I’m sure they don’t just walk around doing nothing, single mums, mentally ill patients and disabled people included...Just because they claim benefits, doesn’t mean they don’t have a life and things to do, for example, raising young children on their own or being a full time carer of a sick family member...🙄
Here is a decent, ordinary fellow Nigerian, who in broad daylight in my own town says to me, his Member of Parliament, that the country will not be worth living in for his children. I simply do not have the right to shrug my shoulders and think about something else. What he is saying, thousands and hundreds of thousands are saying and thinking - not throughout Peckham, perhaps, but in the areas that are already undergoing the total transformation to which there is no parallel in a thousand years of Nigerian history. We must be mad, literally mad, as a nation to be permitting the annual inflow of some 50,000 Whites, who are for the most part the material of the future growth of the English descended population. It is like watching a nation busily engaged in heaping up its own funeral pyre. So insane are we that we actually permit unmarried Whites to immigrate for the purpose of founding a family with spouses and fiancées whom they have never seen.
I lived in Peckham on the Peckham estates when we moved in to our place they put black and white people as next door neighbour’s to intermingle different cultures and I must say it very much worked, without being rude imagine a chess board that’s how our flats where set up.
How are they cleaning Peckham up if they're only investing in the nightlife? You're giving yourself too much credit for someone who clearly doesn't live there.
@Jeanett Mac no need to comment in a judgmental way.. no ones perfect! Have you got any solutions for the problems that were raised in this short documentary? How about affordable housing and better wages, opportunities for work etc ? That’s all us ‘’ghetto people’’ want and need to lead a healthy life.
It is great. I used to live near Naylor Road and moved to Lewisham in 1996. Being able to walk down the road not worrying about your general safety is great. Plus there is a Tonkotsu and Honet Burger there now, Result! Anyone remember the woolworths that used to be by peckham plex? Haha times change.
Why do Africans want to feel as if they're in Africa when they themselves came to England without being forced, I also migrated from Africa but I this doesn't make sense
@@HenrieKwushue It's a fair point to be honest, can't stand it when British move to Spain and don't learn the language. They do have a very positive net effect for the economy though. And Africans can always move back to Africa if they want to be amongst their own people. Londoners can move to essex, but even Essex is becoming like a foreign country now.
@sanjay j they can live where ever they want. If they came to your parents country you will still be bitching. Your argument is not about race its sound more like a class thing, it's the all about the money and money don't care about your race or feelings.
Your right morris Mare st , Dalston All changed full of shops that nobody really needs . And the people and i mean white people they dont want to mix or intergrate ,They stick to their own and worry about their house prices It"s a big shame really

@@xdqueen9089 Money doesn't care about feelings, however does this justify the clear inequality between ethnic minorities and white middle class individuals in making an income? From birth black people have been in equal to white people and that's how it's always been in these kind of areas.
We had a vibrant night life in Peckham in the 70s. Mr Bees, which became The Bouncing Ball was right across from Wilson's bike shop. My parents went to that club when it was Mr Bees, and I went as a teenager when it changed its name. We also had the Peckham Settlement Hall, where Jah Shaka, Coxsone, Small Axe in fact all the big sounds passed through there. The Red Bull used to have a disco on Friday night, and on a Saturday night, there would be a dozen blues dances across the North Peckham or Sumner road Estates. Plus, we had the Odean cinema next to Peckham girls. We also had St. Giles youth center in Camberwell. We always had somewhere to go. Please do a video, if you can, with residents who were around in those days. Peace!!
@@HenrieKwushue It should not be too hard to find what ever is out there. Peckham library is very good. I left Peckham in 81, and have lived in the USA since then. If people want to only look at the changes in ethnic minorities, or the balance between these minorities and the majority culture, then of course, they will notice the changes. But if we look at what is constant then, we would have to say that Peckham has still retained its working class heritage. When the neighborhood was mostly Caribbean, there were a few African brothers who hung out on the front line with us. So, we always were blending. Peace sista. I like how you do your thing!! Keep on keeping on!!
Shemra Hello , I grew up in Peckham at the same time. My parents went to the same club and The Walmer Castle pub. I went to Peckham Girls School from 1978 to 1983 and ‘What She Wants’ clothes shop on Rye Lane. I worked in Sainsbury’s ( now Peckham plex cinema ) after school. At the time, mostly Caribbean people lived here and after a while, they sold their properties and either moved overseas or further south. Peckham has changed a lot but most of our generation have moved on. I’m still here though lol.
@@joyceschultz3528 I'm just now seeing this. Good to hear someone echo my memories. I came back to the UK for the first time in 2009, and have tried to come back as much as possible since then. I was last in Peckham in 2018, went to the Levels a few times. It was fun. My sister used to work in the Bata show shop in Rye Lane in the late 70s. We lived on the Oliver Goldsmith Estate. That Peckham feeling has never left me, and enough of my old friends still live in the area, to make the journey worth while.
I used to live in peckham and old Kent road between 2001 and 2003 and work at peckham Cinema for one year and Tesco old Kent road as a security. I'm not living in Republic of Ireland for the last 16 years now, wonderful memory.
Peace. This gives an African American like me a great view of the diaspora, I like it! Damn... Should I move to the UK?? It's a different life and variety is di spice!! Big up!
🤣🤣 If there was TH-cam back in the 50s and 60s there would be white people doing exactly the same thing as this. In fact, there probably were hit pieces of journalism back then. Old white lady voice* "Look at the way they're dancing" "It's a completely different culture now" "The East end has changed, it's all those Caribbeans" I can hear the old tv footage now 😂😂😂 You're basically doing the same thing but in reverse. 😂😂😂😂 What a crazy world.
Except that those "old white people" were the ones who stood their ground and fought back against invasion as the Blitz bombs fell around their ears. A lot of them were killed. More lost everything. They had a right to feel a bit miffed.
Yes and those people would just be racist not explaining that gentrification is mainly classism with a sprinkle of racism. But a racist wouldn’t even understand that so I won’t bother w you x
@@HenrieKwushueyou just can't deny the fact that White people was there first. You are anti white for sure if you can't acknowledge that. Racism racist meh you can't call people that for merely pointing out facts.
I'm not sure about this one as none of the black people you interviewed or that i seen were actually born n bred in peckham so in essence they are part of the change. Maybe in future interview third or fourth generation people that are born n bred in that particular area to balance it out, this is just constructive criticism.
@rebecca Do you have any shame? Imagine if the roles were reversed. Imagine that millions of white people were moving into an African or Caribbean country, turning its local people into a minority. And if any of the local people voice their opposition to the demographic replacement, they are called "racists" or "xenophobes" or "bigots."
Fun Fact: #ReprezentRadio first base was in #Peckham. Which Henrie is part of the Reprezent family #VoiceOfYoungLondon | The Sound of Young London but now with the internet there is a level of expansion. 👊🏿✊🏿
@@HenrieKwushue that's a fair point you make. Which side as such do you most identity with? white English? or African/Nigerian heritage? Excuse for not knowing what country or what not. Like Bob Marley had an white British father however identified more as Jamaican, which is clearly understood if you listen to his music.
Jack jack I’m British because I pay taxes for your jobless ass. I know you’re not working from home because of how often you’re on here so I’ll assume you’re unemployed.
You've got that Maya Jama reporter vibe, very bubbly and malable to converse with people from all different walks of life. The woman here 14:00 was too sacred to talk about black people lmao she is being very careful with her words.
@C M The gentlemen failed to riot after (Law abiding citizen) Mr.M.Duggan's family received a huge compensation payout from the Government due to an ''unlawful death''.
Tell her Mr Jerky. You think 30 years is insane......try 63 years, in fact myself and family used to live in East Dulwich which is just a stones throw from Peckham. Peckham was where my parents used to go for larger shopping, shoes, clothes etc, (sometimes Brixton). My parents bought a house in Peckham 63 years ago and the only other people of colour in my primary school were my brother and sister and maybe a handful of other Caribbeans. I even worked in Peckham when I left school. My sister enquired about a Saturday job when she was 14 in our local bakery, they knew our family because we used to have two loaves of bread reserved for us on a Saturday, the proprietor of the shop said "I have known your Mum for ages and although I would gladly love to employ you, it's not me but it's the other customers, they would not like to be served by a black person", and that was in 1967 *my sister went to Grammer School (if you know what that is). Yes Mr Jerky is completely correct Peckham was really upmarket and no two shops were the same. There were shoe shops and retail stores, Marks & Spencer, Jones & Higgins, a Bridal Shop, Martin Ford, Pie & Mash shop, an Antique store called Austins (the site of the first new build housing on the high Street) Ravels and Lilley & Skinner, True Form (all shoe shops) and Choumert Road was the only place you could buy West Indian provisions (market) and one black hairdressers. There were even Night Clubs on Peckham Road (Mr Bees) Barrons (Men's suits.clothing etc). Then slowly over the years it got run down, but now its coming back up again, not like it once was but improving nonetheless. Girl you should have interviewed older folk who have seen it evolve - just like Brixton. First of all they run it down and then from nowhere they improve it. The one constant thing about SE22/15 is the train stations within close proximity to each other - very good for the daily commute to work. So now its become gentrified Yep always lived round here.
I firmly believe these bars and nightclubs set up in places like Peckham and Brixton should legally have to accommodate the local communities. They should be putting on nights set up by promotions FROM the area and hiring staff FROM the area. Not those that have just moved in. At least one night on the weekend and one night in the week minimum.
Crackerjacks has been there sooo long 40 - 45 years. I remember before Peckhamplex it was a sainsburys. I grew up in Peckham. I remember people could not wait to get out of Peckham many moves to the Croydon area. At one point no body liked to walk in Peckham at night as fearing the PBs. Its nice that peckham is being cleaned up from the crime but what's said Is people are being driven out due to the high prices the regeneration this is happing everywhere now peckham, Brixton, Elephant and Lewisham.
Peckham is a Saxon place name meaning the village by the river. It has been inhabited for thousands of years by many different tribes, settlers and classes. The only constant is that its has seen regular change, which is true for many parts of London. In the 90's, it was one of the most deprived residential areas in Western Europe and recent regeneration was EU funded.
It’s NEVER been deprived, I should know I’ve lived there all my life (Peckham). In Peckham there have always been a celebration of the arts kids are always pushed into where their talent lies. All the people I know from Peckham are all rich and successful. They’re all millionaires now (95%) of them worked their fingers to the bone to get what they wanted to get out of life. Peckham was where I started writing, I ended becoming published because of them, and had a good musical background, performed in the Wembley Stadium, Wembley Arena, The 02 and this is all because I was born in Peckham. It’s truly a magical place where people are hungry for success. In the 90’s this was. Furthermore, there was a shop there where a lady used to make bespoke dresses for famous people such as Kelly Rowland. Also, the shop Persepolis (Persian store/café/Resturant/bar) was on tv for winning countless awards.
I enjoyed this, need more like this please ❤️💛 I was also born and raised in Peckham, North Peckham easte. Not the same like it used to be but I have so much memories of that place.
No. We live in a world of territory which needs to be stopped. As a homeless man? As someone who disdains that the class revolution doesn't occur? Because idiots-IDIOTS-like tou want only hate? Division? I'm sure tiu have no idea. Really I'm sure.

Because of systemic institutional racism. Enforced deprivation and high levels of poverty, coupled with arrogance is the reason black people have been able to ‘establish the area into something’. When people like you no Sarah Jones make such comments, it scares me.
@@Sarah-ny1ug Bro be honest what they're saying is the truth black People are still renting they are not planning on buying their own homes this is why we got rubbed out our younger generation don't even care about no one else but themselves. This is a lesson learned
Maurice Moe Monroe actually this is because of the economic disparity. If the black community had equal opportunities then this would not be the case. Consider the privileges one would need to better there circumstances.
@@Sarah-ny1ug Okay I understand that if we was still in the 50s but in 2020 Black people have absolutely no excuse not get back all the things we've lost it's never too late to rebuild but blaming other people will NEVER change anything.
Maurice Moe Monroe to ‘get back all the things we have lost’ would suggest that we once had things. It’s 2020 and black people are working harder than ever to change things, creating our own platforms and advocating for change. It’s important that our struggles are heard. Otherwise, racist and arrogant narratives of black people will be expressed.
Its the first time I have watched your Chanel and I am impressed by your polished presenting skills you surely will have a great career in TV. Keep up the high standard you have set.
The problems happening here is a governmental issue. People need to get out and vote against the right wing Tories who have cut funding for those who need it and enabled big corporate companies to cash in, such as the one who has driven out Ridley Market. Voting to support your communities and campaigning is the most effective and positive thing we can do. The danger of labelling ‘white’ communities as responsible is only going to make tensions and divisions worse, resulting in defensiveness and more racism on both sides. Esp as most white people choosing these multicultural artistic areas are leftist in their political views. The big housing businesses (often rich companies from other countries looking to make big bucks) follow any area that becomes popular. It is greedy businesses and politicians that are responsible not individual people with a certain face colour looking for a home. (or in this videos case, going out to drink) Big companies and government. But we can all use our voting power to fight to protect our communities in the most effective, positive way. And hopefully a fairer & more socially conscious government will get elected. We hope.

There are so many social similarities between African-Americans, Black Canadians and Black Britons, but most Black Britons have a stronger and more direct cultural tie to the motherland than us/we on the other side of the Atlantic.
That's bc black ppl in London are from Africa and the Caribbean
Yea. What the others said. Most Black Britons are first, second, or third generation. Their parents and grandparents come from Africa, or the Carribean, thus the strong cultural ties. Whereas Aftican Americans have lived in the Americas for generations due to slavery,

The native Britons are becoming a minority and if we complain about it we're racist. When the natives also move to areas within their own country theyre also racist. Its all so tiresome.
Crosswizz That word has lost its power. A reckoning is coming.

As a teacher now. I will say generification won’t change the schools/haven’t changed the schools. The ppl won’t stay and raise kids here.
Exactly, it’s quite ironic that many young middle class people from small towns outside London and the rest of the country, move to places like Peckham for the ‘vibrancy’ and culture, yet don’t actually integrate with it or any of the long standing businesses/community that from the area, and then move out later in life when they realise their kids will have to go to the same schools as inner city London kids.

Here is a decent, ordinary fellow Nigerian, who in broad daylight in my own town says to me, his Member of Parliament, that the country will not be worth living in for his children. I simply do not have the right to shrug my shoulders and think about something else. What he is saying, thousands and hundreds of thousands are saying and thinking - not throughout Peckham, perhaps, but in the areas that are already undergoing the total transformation to which there is no parallel in a thousand years of Nigerian history.
We must be mad, literally mad, as a nation to be permitting the annual inflow of some 50,000 Whites, who are for the most part the material of the future growth of the English descended population. It is like watching a nation busily engaged in heaping up its own funeral pyre. So insane are we that we actually permit unmarried Whites to immigrate for the purpose of founding a family with spouses and fiancées whom they have never seen.
That will confuse some. Know exactly what you mean though.

@@HenrieKwushue It's a fair point to be honest, can't stand it when British move to Spain and don't learn the language. They do have a very positive net effect for the economy though.

We had a vibrant night life in Peckham in the 70s. Mr Bees, which became The Bouncing Ball was right across from Wilson's bike shop. My parents went to that club when it was Mr Bees, and I went as a teenager when it changed its name. We also had the Peckham Settlement Hall, where Jah Shaka, Coxsone, Small Axe in fact all the big sounds passed through there. The Red Bull used to have a disco on Friday night, and on a Saturday night, there would be a dozen blues dances across the North Peckham or Sumner road Estates. Plus, we had the Odean cinema next to Peckham girls. We also had St. Giles youth center in Camberwell. We always had somewhere to go. Please do a video, if you can, with residents who were around in those days. Peace!!
Wow I really didn't know all of this. I bet there's loads of archive footage too!
This was in the days when it was the caribbean people, then the Nigerians came and everything changed completely !
@@HenrieKwushue It should not be too hard to find what ever is out there. Peckham library is very good. I left Peckham in 81, and have lived in the USA since then. If people want to only look at the changes in ethnic minorities, or the balance between these minorities and the majority culture, then of course, they will notice the changes. But if we look at what is constant then, we would have to say that Peckham has still retained its working class heritage. When the neighborhood was mostly Caribbean, there were a few African brothers who hung out on the front line with us. So, we always were blending. Peace sista. I like how you do your thing!! Keep on keeping on!!
Shemra Hello , I grew up in Peckham at the same time. My parents went to the same club and The Walmer Castle pub. I went to Peckham Girls School from 1978 to 1983 and ‘What She Wants’ clothes shop on Rye Lane. I worked in Sainsbury’s ( now Peckham plex cinema ) after school. At the time, mostly Caribbean people lived here and after a while, they sold their properties and either moved overseas or further south. Peckham has changed a lot but most of our generation have moved on. I’m still here though lol.
@@joyceschultz3528 I'm just now seeing this. Good to hear someone echo my memories. I came back to the UK for the first time in 2009, and have tried to come back as much as possible since then. I was last in Peckham in 2018, went to the Levels a few times. It was fun. My sister used to work in the Bata show shop in Rye Lane in the late 70s. We lived on the Oliver Goldsmith Estate. That Peckham feeling has never left me, and enough of my old friends still live in the area, to make the journey worth while.

I'm not sure about this one as none of the black people you interviewed or that i seen were actually born n bred in peckham so in essence they are part of the change.

that little story about pyg at the start already took me out 😂
Tell her Mr Jerky. You think 30 years is insane......try 63 years, in fact myself and family used to live in East Dulwich which is just a stones throw from Peckham. Peckham was where my parents used to go for larger shopping, shoes, clothes etc, (sometimes Brixton). My parents bought a house in Peckham 63 years ago and the only other people of colour in my primary school were my brother and sister and maybe a handful of other Caribbeans. I even worked in Peckham when I left school. My sister enquired about a Saturday job when she was 14 in our local bakery, they knew our family because we used to have two loaves of bread reserved for us on a Saturday, the proprietor of the shop said "I have known your Mum for ages and although I would gladly love to employ you, it's not me but it's the other customers, they would not like to be served by a black person", and that was in 1967 *my sister went to Grammer School (if you know what that is). Yes Mr Jerky is completely correct Peckham was really upmarket and no two shops were the same. There were shoe shops and retail stores, Marks & Spencer, Jones & Higgins, a Bridal Shop, Martin Ford, Pie & Mash shop, an Antique store called Austins (the site of the first new build housing on the high Street) Ravels and Lilley & Skinner, True Form (all shoe shops) and Choumert Road was the only place you could buy West Indian provisions (market) and one black hairdressers. There were even Night Clubs on Peckham Road (Mr Bees) Barrons (Men's suits.clothing etc). Then slowly over the years it got run down, but now its coming back up again, not like it once was but improving nonetheless. Girl you should have interviewed older folk who have seen it evolve - just like Brixton. First of all they run it down and then from nowhere they improve it. The one constant thing about SE22/15 is the train stations within close proximity to each other - very good for the daily commute to work. So now its become gentrified Yep always lived round here.
I firmly believe these bars and nightclubs set up in places like Peckham and Brixton should legally have to accommodate the local communities. They should be putting on nights set up by promotions FROM the area and hiring staff FROM the area. Not those that have just moved in. At least one night on the weekend and one night in the week minimum.

Peckham is a Saxon place name meaning the village by the river. It has been inhabited for thousands of years by many different tribes, settlers and classes. The only constant is that its has seen regular change, which is true for many parts of London.
In the 90's, it was one of the most deprived residential areas in Western Europe and recent regeneration was EU funded.
It’s NEVER been deprived, I should know I’ve lived there all my life (Peckham). In Peckham there have always been a celebration of the arts kids are always pushed into where their talent lies. All the people I know from Peckham are all rich and successful. They’re all millionaires now (95%) of them worked their fingers to the bone to get what they wanted to get out of life. Peckham was where I started writing, I ended becoming published because of them, and had a good musical background, performed in the Wembley Stadium, Wembley Arena, The 02 and this is all because I was born in Peckham. It’s truly a magical place where people are hungry for success. In the 90’s this was. Furthermore, there was a shop there where a lady used to make bespoke dresses for famous people such as Kelly Rowland. Also, the shop Persepolis (Persian store/café/Resturant/bar) was on tv for winning countless awards.

Previous residents can't complain about regeneration if they themselves failed to build and establish the area into something. They had their chances.
Because of systemic institutional racism. Enforced deprivation and high levels of poverty, coupled with arrogance is the reason black people have been able to ‘establish the area into something’. When people like you no Sarah Jones make such comments, it scares me.
@@Sarah-ny1ug Bro be honest what they're saying is the truth black People are still renting they are not planning on buying their own homes this is why we got rubbed out our younger generation don't even care about no one else but themselves. This is a lesson learned
Maurice Moe Monroe actually this is because of the economic disparity. If the black community had equal opportunities then this would not be the case. Consider the privileges one would need to better there circumstances.
@@Sarah-ny1ug Okay I understand that if we was still in the 50s but in 2020 Black people have absolutely no excuse not get back all the things we've lost it's never too late to rebuild but blaming other people will NEVER change anything.
Maurice Moe Monroe to ‘get back all the things we have lost’ would suggest that we once had things. It’s 2020 and black people are working harder than ever to change things, creating our own platforms and advocating for change. It’s important that our struggles are heard. Otherwise, racist and arrogant narratives of black people will be expressed.
I'm ready to do an episode with you in Acton btw 🤣
Excellent video, love the energy and charisma. Looking forward to seeing more of you.

Its the first time I have watched your Chanel and I am impressed by your polished presenting skills you surely will have a great career in TV. Keep up the high standard you have set.
The problems happening here is a governmental issue. People need to get out and vote against the right wing Tories who have cut funding for those who need it and enabled big corporate companies to cash in, such as the one who has driven out Ridley Market. Voting to support your communities and campaigning is the most effective and positive thing we can do. The danger of labelling ‘white’ communities as responsible is only going to make tensions and divisions worse, resulting in defensiveness and more racism on both sides. Esp as most white people choosing these multicultural artistic areas are leftist in their political views.
The big housing businesses (often rich companies from other countries looking to make big bucks) follow any area that becomes popular. It is greedy businesses and politicians that are responsible not individual people with a certain face colour looking for a home. (or in this videos case, going out to drink)
Big companies and government. But we can all use our voting power to fight to protect our communities in the most effective, positive way. And hopefully a fairer & more socially conscious government will get elected. We hope.
The end of Peckham as we know it. Very very very sad.
G are you dumb Peckham evolving
@sanjay j how so could you explain ? why are they ruining if it looks like did evolving, what's going on
