  • nice man you met on the train, it was very good of him to make an input

  • true i totally agree

  • It's not identity crisis. It's a crisis of conscience. These young black males are fighting usually over drug territories, not postcodes.

  • Wow, as an active Atheist i must admit that Preist guy was quite right on with the point of an Identity being hijacked. Am i alone in thinking why not just create our own new identity which is well overdue, London's multiculture is like no other in the world, we're the social pioneers, fuck the old school, we're the new people living under old views that don't fit our way of doing things. Such a mess at the moment is England. That black British Checkbox needs sorting out though its divisive.

  • My question is.... What is it to be "British/English"?

    Is it Race, Culture, Religion, philosophy ...Etc?

    I’m a Black British born female; my parents were born and raised in the Caribbean however I identify myself as black British; I am an English woman of Afro-Caribbean descent. A black African friend introduced me to her family as "English"; I went to a Jamaican school and was also indentified as the “English Gal”!

  • The English flag, the St George is too often waved or worn as a symbol of xenophobic defiance to all non-English and black people are the most obviously non English looking, where as the Union Jack has been seen wrapped around Black Athletes, who are usually the only black people referred to by the media as British.

  • not sir....Brother.
