363: ‘We lost our minds’ | Lord Sewell on BLM

This is the audio from a video we have just published on our YouTube channel – an interview with Tony Sewell. To make sure you never miss great content like this, subscribe to our channel: https://www.youtube.com/@spiked Five years ago, the killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis sent the Black Lives Matter movement global. Activists declared Britain to be a ‘systemically racist’ nation, where ‘white privilege’ reigns. Lord Sewell was tasked by the then Conservative government to investigate the state of racism in the UK. His findings, in the Commission for Race and Ethnic Disparities report, caused uproar among the identitarian elites. Here, he tells spiked why there was no truth behind the BLM narrative in Britain, why class matters more than race, and why ethnic minorities must resist the label of victim.
