The Windrush Generation A Collection of Photos Richard Gareth Hamilton

The people considered to be of the Windrush generation is inclusive of everyone who came to the UK between 1948 and 1971 to work, live, and this is also inclusive of the family members of these people. Typically the children were sent for after the parents settled in and found accommodation. At first, people travelled by boat and then eventually more and more people began to travel by plane. This book provides an insight into the lives and experiences of a small selection of people From The Windrush Generation, the aim of this book and collection of images is to give insight into the lives of this collective of people and create empathy. Hopefully this book will help to create an understanding of not just the experiences of this collective of people, but also paint a picture of the significant obstacles they faced and how much of an impact this displacement had on this diaspora of people.
