His starting point is his own family’s experiences, their memories of racist signs in shops and of the anti-immigrant local MP Enoch Powell in Wolverhampton when they arrived in 1968. Sathnam’s journey across the series isn’t just intellectual. Travelling across Britain and speaking to people from a variety of walks of life with his distinctive candour and wit, Sathnam will look at the ways in which Empire is remembered and how this has created Britain’s culture and its politics. A 2圆0 series from Sandpaper Films, Empire & Me (w/t) will see writer and broadcaster Sathnam Sanghera go on a very personal journey to unearth the roots that bind his country to its colonial past. Channel 4 will be tearing down the myths and misunderstandings of colonial history in a new commission that examines the way that Empire has shaped modern Britain. ![]()
