25: The Murder of Stephen Lawrence

This week we are exploring the racist murder of 18 year old Stephen Lawrence in London in April 1993. This case dominated headlines throughout the 1990s and well into the 2000s, as it brought the institutional racism at the heart of London’s Metropolitan Police into the spotlight and led to a huge investigation into police conduct.BLACK HOSTED PODCASTS:Say Your MindAbout Race with Reni Eddo-LodgeGood Ancestor PodcastThis is SpokeThe Echo ChamberBlack Scot PodCult 45The NodSnap JudgementIn Black AmericaFriends Like UsAsk a Black Woman30 Something, Black and GayFURTHER READING:Murder of Stephen LawrenceDuwayne BrooksSpecial Demonstration SquadStephen Lawrence: timeline of key events | UK newsStephen Lawrence murder: A timeline of how the story unfoldedMurder of Stephen LawrenceStephen Lawrence Charitable TrustThe Stephen Lawrence Inquiry - GOV.UK (Macpherson Report)Scarman ReportBBC One - Stephen: The Murder that Changed a NationRELATED EPISODES:22: Shannon MatthewsPodcast Blackout-----------------------------------------------Like the show?
