Join the Centre for Black Humanities for a screening of The Unequal Pandemic (Executive Producer Debbie Abrahams MP and Good Guys Productions Ltd, 2024), a short film that lays bare the long-term institutional, societal and governmental failures that led to one of the highest excess Covid death rates in the developed world. Family testimonies and startling evidence reveal how we were not all in it together. It asks how can we can build a fairer society for all, ready for when the next pandemic comes.
