The one where we talk to a Black British icon born of
a Black British icon
This Black History Month, Emma and Nicole speak to actress Lenora
Crichlow - a Black British icon herself and daughter of Black
British icon Frank Crichlow, owner of the Mangrove and one of the
Mangrove 9. You may have recently connected with Frank’s story via
Steve McQueen Small Axe series.
Lenora spoke about growing up Mixed and Black in the UK, about acting and activism, about the love story of her mum and dad and about finally being able to stop asking the world - ‘Black or white - am I ok? Am I enough? It’s not their responsibility anymore.’
