Tomorrow, on 4 May, it will be forty-nine years since the body of David Oluwale was pulled from the River Aire, Leeds in 1969. And nearly two weeks ago, the twenty-fifth anniversary of the racist murder of Stephen Lawrence in 1993 was marked. Both deaths were watershed moments and synonymous with racism in different ways.
Remember David Oluwale and Stephen Lawrence
