    You never grew up on the same streets I did, watching the police use the old ‘SUS’ laws to stop anyone they pleased. more

  • Outstanding podcast

    Thanks to all involved for these. I remember the Brixton riots as a teenager living in another part of London and years later I worked there. Really good to hear the years of background that led up to those events from people who were there and lived through it. Big Narstie presents it really well, more like this please.👏

  • Excellent: An Important Historical Document

    I'm white. I grew up just South of Brixton. The riots went on just before I was at an age where I started partying. This podcast sets the scene for what went on in my early youth and just before. It was appaling to be reminded of the racism that went on (and still does), but the music was great. Well told and balanced.
