Lenny looks back on his coming of age and explores how he and other second- and third-generation British-born Caribbean kids began to mesh their identity into their art.
From the theatre and arts collectives of the 80s to the making of brands, to the evolution of jungle and grime music, he explores how the output of successive generations has moved into the mainstream, enriching and transforming Britain鈥檚 cultural offering. And he hears how the third and fourth generations are determined to reconnect with their Caribbean roots and culture.
