Director Sukant Chandan joined IHRC on the 25th August 2016 to discuss his newest documentary ‘Insight to riot’.
Insight to Riot is a documentary film that captures the inspiring but also at times very sad and traumatic stories of Black and poor people reacting and responding and navigating a growing racist, oppressive society and government, and the dangers and fall outs of such a trajectory.
The film features some of the leading Black, radical and grassroots voices in England speaking on the riots that raged across dozens of towns and cities in England following on 4 August 2011 the police killing of Mark Duggan, an unarmed Black youth in the largely immigrant and poor community of Tottenham in North London, a community that has resisted far right racism and UK state racism for generations.
