66. Hate Thy Neighbour

Update: 2023-04-05

Description

After a series of racially motivated murders in the East End of London in 1978, a large resistance formed against racism. In this episode, we take a look at three separate crimes that happened over three consecutive months, including the death of 10-year-old Kennith Singh, attacked just metres from his home in Plaistow, Altab Ali who was stabbed in the neck whilst walking through Whitechapel and Ishaque Ali who had been beaten by three youths in Hackney.
This episode contains racial language which may cause offence.
