Hi Marika,
Long before others begun taking on the Windrush I
researched and presented a programme for Radio 4
entitled, They came before the Windrush, produced by
Marina Sal;andy Brown, you should contact her at the
BBC. I was always in disagreement that the Windrush
brought the first batch of West Indian immagrants to
this country aaand it was the beginning of mass
immigration. I am pleased someone is seeking to
straighten the records. There is so much more to that
topic.
This is all I want to contribute so far. I do hope
others who are in Liverpool will help to add to this,
as most of the men came as skilled workers and settled
in Liverpool.
I was in hospital having surgery and just came home to
a flood of e-mails.
Best wishes
Alex
