The Lost Images of the Windrush Generation

 

The Lost Images of the Windrush Generation

A metaphor for the black presence in Britain? A spooky miracle of technology? Or both?

The true story of the lost photographs of Caribbean migrants at Waterloo Station in 1962, presumed unprintable for over 50 years and laid aside until new digital techniques allowed these important images to be salvaged.

Colin Grant – author of Homecoming: Voices of the Windrush Generation – speaks to the photographer, Howard Grey, about this remarkable story, in a conversation illustrated by the photos themselves, shown as projections.
