The Windrush Years Part 14


- Police were still racist
- They would raid a Caribbean restaurant just because there were black people inside
- Black people began to afraid of the police even more than the teddy boys
- They were arrested often over nothing
- They were always stopped and searched
- The police felt that were fighting against a rising tide of black criminality
- Black people were 15x more likely to be convicted than white people
- Black children’s parents were more likely to side with the police
- Black parents began to realise that police were biased and so resentment towards them grew
