#VEDay80 don't forget 15,000 West Indians who served in WW2. One of my mentors was the late Eddie Martin Noble 1917 2017. I made a film in 2008 called A Charmed Life about his life. The film inspired me to start the campaign for a national Windrush Day.

“I want my legacy to be more love.” — Benjamin Zephaniah. The legendary poet. Rebel. Rasta. Peacemaker. Voice for the voiceless and Peaky Blinders star gave us a final message of radical compassion. In his last interview, he urged us to turn on the “love inside us” for all beings
