Afua Hirsch and Matthew Taylor discuss Britain's current identity crisis at Wilderness Festival.
Britain is a nation experiencing an identity crisis – populist movements attempt to draw us back to a nostalgic vision of homogenous, white Britain, whilst demographic changes see our cities more diverse and multi-dimensional than ever. How do we tackle issues like racism, identity and belonging against this backdrop, and are so-called ‘colour-blind’ liberals part of the problem? Barrister, broadcaster and author of the bestselling book ‘Brit(ish)’, Afua Hirsch delivers a rousing call-to-action for 21st century Britain.
This event was recorded live at Wilderness Festival on Sunday 5th August 2018. Discover more about this event here: https://www.thersa.org/events/2018/08/rsa-presents-on-belonging-and-britishness
