Black Power Desk – Brixton House 1970s London. Two sisters divided by grief and radical politics, motivated by love but will their fight for the community be worth the damage to their sisterhood?

Inspired by the #MangroveNine - nine British Black activists tried for inciting riot at a 1970 protest against the police targetting of the Mangrove restaurant.

Their acquittal on the most serious charges marked a victory for civil rights.
The Mangrove Nine’s resistance and the subsequent trial brought attention to racial injustice in the UK, laying the groundwork for future anti-racist movements.
