Episode description

Born and raised Bristolian, community activist and diehard Bristol Rovers fan, Delroy Hibbert is a Black Lives Matter backer. But he also attended the ‘All Lives Matter’ nationalist demonstration in Bristol the week after Colston fell. A Bristol Cable video seen by hundreds of thousands captured a very tense moment with agitated protesters, ending in an iconic photograph of Delroy and a veteran shaking hands in front of the Colston plinth. 


Why, as a Black man, did he go? How does he respond to any criticism he may have received, what are the solutions to racial disparity in the city, and how can the black and white working class build bridges?
