" "A clear example was the resignation of the home secretary, Amber Rudd,on the first day of my visit. This resignation came amidst the still-unfolding scandal of the gross human rights violations and indignities that Afro-Caribbean British citizens popularly referred to as the ‘Windrush generation’ have had to endure as a result of the so-called ‘hostile environment’ policy introduced during Prime Minister Theresa May’s tenure as home secretary.

I am shocked by the criminalisation of young people from ethnic minorities, especially young black men. They are over-represented in police stop and searches, more likely to face prosecution under the country’s joint enterprise provisions, and are over-represented in the prison system. There can be no question that a pervasive and officially tolerated culture of racial profiling is at work in certain police forces and that racial and ethnic minority children and youth are among the most vulnerable.
