Life in Moss Side and Hulme captured in amazing footage shot 50 years ago

A fascinating video of South Manchester from the 1970s has been unearthed in the Getty archives. The footage featuring Moss Side and Hulme shows everyday life for the Caribbean communities living in those areas. The BBC filmed the video as part of a programme about migration to the UK from the Caribbean as part of the 'Windrush' generation. Much of the footage captures the diverse community in Moss Side in December 1973. In addition to shots of Manchester streets, the video shows everyday life in Moss Side, including people shopping and working and life at Hulme Crescents. The term "Windrush generation" is derived from the ship HMT Empire Windrush, which arrived in the UK in 1948, carrying many passengers from the Caribbean. Following World War II, this generation was encouraged to come to the UK between 1948 and 1973 to fill labour shortages. LIKE | COMMENT | SUBSCRIBE | SHARE #nostalgia #archive #manchester
