Zita grew up in South London, the child of an inter-racial relationship – dad was white and mum was black. Lessons in racial justice grew from watching and listening to her mother, whose passions and righteousness leaves you feeling a bit in awe.
Welcome to Rebel Women, a podcast about history’s troublemakers. In this week’s episode we explore race and racism in the UK; the part women have played in fighting it, and the risks they have taken in doing so.
