Think of England: 5: A Touch of the Tar Brush

on BBC Two England

A series of six very personal views of the English.

Black film-maker John Akomfrah believes that, for too long, being English has meant being white. He shows Englishness from the point of view of mixed race English people. Following in the footsteps of J B Priestley, author of English Journey, he visits Liverpool, one of the oldest multicultural communities in England.
