- In this emotional investigation, Nadifa will reveal that when Winston Churchill needed the help of the US Army to defeat Hitler, he made a controversial decision to allow America to bring its segregated Army to the UK.
  
  The racial tension between the black and white American soldiers spilled out onto the streets of Britain, resulting in shoot-outs, riots and murders.
  
  Whilst searching for people alive today directly impacted by the violence, Nadifa explores how the impact of this bloodshed and racism is still with us.
