The Makranis live in Karachi and share the customs, language and religion of their Pakistani neighbours, but in one respect they're different. They are direct descendants of black African slaves brought to the Indian subcontinent by Arabs and Moors 1,200 years ago. Today, as they strive to keep their culture and traditions alive, some Makranis believe they are treated little better than their slave ancestors.

Last in the series.

The charge of racism destroys lives. It happened to Bernard Crofton, the director of housing at Hackney Council in London. It also happened to Dennis Bartholomew, head of the council's race unit. Crofton is white. Bartholomew is black. Both were fighting corruption when charges of racism were levelled against them. Both lost their jobs and their reputations. John Ware investigates the morality of town hall politics and exposes the cynical cries of racism.
