NORTH KENSINGTON
"NORTH KENSINGTON IN THE 1950's, 60'S WAS A WORKING CLASS AREA.
West Indians from every island, Africans, Irish and Jewish mixed together, socially and in work. Many West Indian men saved up and sent for their wives and children to come over in the 1950s and 60s. They were all hardworking people. The men and women worked hard to have a decent life in a strange country." Barbara
