Roger Griffith, a Black British Social Entrepreneur and faculty member at the University of West England spoke to us from Britain. He shared the dichotomy of being Black and being called "British Boy". Roger expressed frustration about the unhealthy obsession towards Black men, yet he conveyed his optimism as he salutes the Windrush generation with a well articulated poem.
"I've always knew there is good and bad in every race, and that's pretty much how I've judged my life. One of the books that changed my life was the work of Malcolm X, and he referred to white people as devils and the like. I had to go through some kind of reckoning because I just couldn't see that as possible. My friends weren't devils...." - Roger Griffith
