PECKHAM PODCAST #6 Stephen Bourne

[Chris Haydon]

Stephen is a much published writer of Black British History. He is a delightful man and a longstanding member of the Southwark IAG - a group that links up with local police as 'critical friend'. His is a story of a family who embraced Esther, a young Black woman orphaned during World War II. Decades later their boy became a prolific author of Black British History. No ordinary story. No university education. He also has views on whether the Met can survive its current crises.
