It’s time to consign the nonsense about minorities having ‘victim mentalities’ to bed once & for all. Asian & black people have fought hard for our rights & freedoms for decades, nay centuries in both Britain & ancestral lands. Our school curricula need to reflect our #Defiance .

The series starts Monday 8th April, 9pm on Channel 4 Riz Ahmed GroupM Motion Entertainment
