Robert, Elizabeth & Sheldon: Living with racism in the justice system

During August, three people contacted us to talk about the inherent racism inside the British justice system. They should know - they work in it.

Three people who have gone into our justice system to do the right thing, to protect the vulnerable, to do what the system is supposed to do - justice. And they have been deeply scarred by the racism, hostility and indifference they have suffered.

Robert, Elizabeth and Sheldon (not their real names) have had their words voiced by actors for this shocking episode which illustrated just how far the Met Police and others have to go in tackling racism.

These are verbatim first hand accounts of extraordinary people experiencing an extraordinary level of pain, just trying to do their jobs in some of the most important institutions in modern Britain.

Portrayed by three wonderful actors: Christopher Colquhoun, Adjoa Andoh and Okezie Morrow
