Caribbean protests, uprisings and role in World War 2 victory: The Camden connections - An Illustrated Talk

West Indian radicals led major protest movements against racism and colonial rule at home in the Caribbean and in the UK during the 1920s and 30s.

In this illustrated talk, historian Colin Douglas, author of "The Caribbean and the Second World War", will share this story and the links to Camden.
