Parliament; the Civil Servants, historians and academics, the BBC, and those who commission its programmes, the Royal British Legion and other English corporate and public institutions have mocked Caribbean people’s huge contribution to England by cruelly and illegally exiling English Caribbean Subjects in 2018.
No English reporter or writer can condemn the 1940s German Government or Apartheid South Africa or the ill-treatment of the Palestinian people, following civilised England treated its Caribbean Subjects who had not broken any Eglish laws, will forever shame this racist country in the modern area.
I don’t know if this has been tried already but it may be a good idea if it hasn’t. Black people in the UK would feel more appreciated by society if we were given more opportunity to have our voice heard. The BBC should set up a BAME radio channel that broadcasts BAME topics 24/7. The programme presenters would be from the BAME community. A typical 24 hours would feature several hours of black gospel music, followed by several hours of listener’s phone calls to voice their views on current affairs, followed by more hours of music (reggae/soul/jazz), followed by more listener’s views. Special guests could include black celebrities, church leaders and Voice Newspaper editors.
