The ongoing legacy of Windrush in Britain.

TL;DR Summary
The Windrush generation, who arrived in the UK from the Caribbean between the late 1940s and early 1970s, have marked the 75th anniversary of their arrival. While the day is nostalgic for many, it also brings up memories of discrimination and the recent Windrush scandal, which saw many people from former British colonies denied employment, housing and benefits to which they were entitled and even deported. The anniversary is an opportunity to remind people of what the Windrush generation has accomplished in - and for - the UK and to preserve their legacy.
