Since 2008, Andrew Jackson has been developing an ongoing trilogy of projects exploring the intergenerational experience of Britain’s Caribbean diaspora. Divided into three chapters with questions of family, community and inheritance at its core, it begins with Jackson’s own reflection on his parents’ story, who arrived in England as part of the Windrush generation. Next, it follows a group of young men from Handsworth, Birmingham, from the 2008 financial crash to the hostile environment of post-Brexit Britain. The final chapter will see Jackson return to Jamaica, exploring the psychological impact of migration, home and belonging.
