520 |a During World War II, thousands of black volunteers from the Caribbean joined the fight against nazi Germany. Their contribution to the war effort is often overlooked. They risked their lives for king and empire and in the process they became more determined than ever to fight for racial equality. The presence of black servicemen and women in Britain was the beginning of Britain's multicultural society as it stands today. Their experiences of life in Britain also changed life in the colonies, with far-reaching repercussions. Returning servicemen began to test the long-established ideas of imperial rule in an effort to secure independence for their countries. In this compelling and insightful film, veterans tell their vivid wartime stories and describe their experiences in Britain of the 1940s and afterwards.
