00:00 We are part of the Welsh heritage. If they hadn't come when they were called, who knows
00:11 what would have happened?
00:14 The Windrush people come here and they nurtured the health service, the railway and all the
00:22 government facilities, yet the Windrush people have become a surplus to requirement.
00:32 They had a shock when they came here as British citizens to be told that they didn't belong,
00:39 but they didn't let that stop them and their children and grandchildren and great-grandchildren
00:44 and we are all still part of the work they started. We stand on the shoulders of giants.
00:52 The Windrush generation has come here to Wales to allow everybody to understand people are
01:00 people no matter where you come from or who you are.
01:05 We get that information in Jamaica that Britain needs your help. There is hosts provided,
01:13 there is jobs available for everyone. That's why we leave Jamaica.
01:20 They came and gave their all and thinking about how they've treated us, the government
01:28 have treated the Windrush.
