Contributed to Sean Rigg's Death
Analysis UK: Police force “more than minimally” contributed to Sean Rigg’s death Trevor Hemmings The jury condemned a catalogue of police failings and refuted the findings of the Independent Police Complaints Authority. The circumstances of Rigg's death highlight the disproportionate treatment of black people by police and the difficulty of holding officers accountable for their actions. At the beginning of August 2012 a jury at Southwark Coroners Court delivered a highly critical narrative verdict at the inquest into the death of Sean Rigg, a black musician who died following contact with the police on 21 August 2008. After listening to seven weeks of evidence the jury unequivocally rejected the account given by police officers and in so doing refuted the findings of an investigation by the Independent Police Complaints Authority (IPCC). The jury found that the 40-year died at Brixton police station as the result of a cardiac arrest (and acute arrhythmia, ischemia and partial positional asphyxia) following a series of errors by the South London and Maudsley (SLAM) NHS Trust and the Metropolitan police. Coroner Dr Andrew Harris had ruled out verdicts of unlawful killing and neglect, but the jury said that the inaction of the NHS Trust and the actions of Brixton police had “more than minimally contributed to Sean Rigg’s death.” [1] The jury’s findings were greeted with spontaneous applause from the public gallery and praised by the Coroner who told its members: “You have demonstrated perspicacity and attention to detail in exercising your duty.” On the Inquisition form, the jurors had crossed out King’s College Hospital as the place of death and replaced it with Brixton police station – confirming the argument made by Sean’s family over the last four years that he had died on the floor of the police station [2]. -

I was also privileged to witness the creation of The Lambeth Black Families Forum (LBFF) this year chaired by our very own Sandra Moodie and Vince McBean from The West Indian and ex Service Personnel (WASP) and supported by Lambeth Police and the Council. An Inspirational moment In April 2011 saw: Ivelaw Bowman, Cheryl Sealy and Wesley Stephenson honoured by Operation Trident Occupational Command Unit with Commendations for work above and beyond the call. This was a moment where we all publicly acknowledged CPCG for Lambeth and the work we do as we believe: 'the group is the group and we stand for something together' I have seen the tears and despair of families coping with the loss of loved ones gunned down or tragically stabbed in their prime due to gang or area code issues or death following police contact. More alarmingly, is the on-going question of our youth service and the youth clubs available to them as their environment seems to be vanishing right before their eyes. -

June 2018 Contents Abstract 2 Defiance 3 Framing the Approach 4 Connectivity 5 Commitment 7 Visualising Resistance 10 Defining Identity 11 Ideologies 33 Impact 37 Current Practice 45 Bibliography 50 Page 1 Abstract This critical appraisal of the submitted work outlines my position within radical documentary film making from Britain’s Black Legacy (1991) to Burn (2014). Exploring the works in relation to the political concerns during the periods of the time of practice, the notion of an uncompromising ‘documentary of force’ develops throughout the portfolio. Moving from broadcast interventions, thorough Third Cinema practices and explorations of ‘poetic testimonies’ the works use a hybrid of documentarist modes determined by the context of the time. A praxis develops using documentary film to utilise strategies of political, cultural, and cinematic interventions to build on latent militancy and challenge dominant media and state narratives on the core issues of race, class and state violence. -

IN THE UNDERCOVER POLICING INQUIRY OPENING SUBMISSIONS ON BEHALF OF CORE PARTICIPANTS SET OUT IN AN ANNEX REPRESENTED BY HODGE JONES & ALLEN, BHATT MURPHY AND BINDMANS SOLICITORS INTRODUCTION 1. This opening statement is made on behalf of over 100 individuals and groups, all of whom are Core Participants in this Inquiry. 2. All of them were subjected to undercover police surveillance that was inappropriate, improperly regulated, and abused their rights. They want answers from this Inquiry and ask that this Inquiry makes recommendations that prevent this experience happening to others. 3. These Core Participants come from a wide variety of backgrounds, ages, ethnicities and political views. But they all share an outrage at the experience each of them suffered. They deserve answers for the experiences they suffered through undercover policing to which none of them should have been subjected. Those officers and their supervisors, who committed that wrongdoing must be called to account, as must be the system that permitted it. 4. The experiences of these Core Participants spans more than a 40 year period from 1968 to the present date. They are people who campaigned – and still campaign – on a variety of different issues. Some have remained community activists, others have continued to seek justice for family members who were killed. Others have become senior political figures – including Members of Parliament, and a member of the House of Lords who is also a former Secretary of State. 5. A common feature that unites their experience is that the police surveillance to which they were subjected was not merely out of control, but was politicised.
