"I want to thank the British descendants of the Windrush generation for the work, the effort, the resilience, the strength that they have shown. They could have gone under decades ago but they have risen to the point where they have created this perfect storm for me. ... The National Windrush Monument is my thank you to them all."

Basil Watson, Sculptor

In 1960 aged 10 I arrived from #Trinidad at #WaterlooStn platform 19. Little did I know 62yrs later I would be in charge of creating a #NationalWindrushMonument near that platform to celebrate the #Windrush contribution to Britain. This is part of the #Windrush75 legacy
