The history we don't hear about ᛫ Colin Grant

Colin Grant talks about his passion to capture the stories of Windrush, and his incredible book Homecoming, which draws on over a hundred first-hand interviews, archival recordings and memoirs by the women and men who came to Britain from the West Indies between the late 1940s and the early 1960s.
