Description

As a social anthropologist, I use the collection of life stories as part of my research methods. For life stories and narratives provide insights into personal experiences that occurred in the past and shaped the present, as well as capturing new experiences in the current time. In this instance, my work has focused on finding out about the people who came to Britain from the Caribbean during the ‘Windrush’ era of migration and their successive generations to understand their journey and experiences. Uncovering how they have contributed to British social and cultural spheres and the impact the sojourn has on them and their successive generations.
