It was an honour to take part in the 45th anniversary service of the #NewCrossFire where the names of the 14 young victims were read out and candles lit in their memories. It was very emotional and they should never be forgotten. We live in hope that the crime will be solved🙏🏾

The 14th death caused by the #NewCrossFire.
A must see trio next week from the incredibly talented, Mr Steve McQueen.

"McQueen’s 3 part documentary, Uprising, tells the story of the fire, & the Black People’s Day of Action & the Brixton riots that followed it in 1981, with the Oscar-winning director believing the restive period should be taught in schools." #NewCrossFire
