Arguably we've listed the most influential
Black people in Britain. Whether they work in the public or private sector,
are wealthy or not. They are here by virtue of the influence they have had
and still have in defining life and how we as a community live, are viewed
and treated in Britain today.
This list is in no way complete, and we are not saying we are right - but justify the reason for an
inclusion or exclusion and we will
happily amend. |
