Who Are The Cockney’s Now? - 1968 - 6/10
Part of the “One Pair Of Eyes” series, this installment hosted by Georgia Brown.
Brown grew up in Whitechapel during the Blitz, when the area was very much a Jewish enclave.
By the late ‘60’s, however, most of the Jewish community had departed, their storefronts closed.
New immigrants were Pakistani, facing the same discrimination as those previous.
Here, Brown wanders off theme, as she repeatedly urges Jewish leaders to open their doors to newcomers.
Could be the spirit of the ‘60’s, could be Brown herself no longer lived there.
