Spent the past few months working on this film for @BBCPanorama. I tracked down hundreds of individuals convicted for joining (often violent) riots across the country last summer. Many told me their stories but just three were willing to speak on camera.

Tonight’s BBC documentary was just 30 minutes long but so relevant, because we live in a time of fake news and short memories. Never again. There is still joy in this film, as Harry and Arek return to Windermere where they had been rehabilitated in 1945. https://t.co/Fcm9Kg3S0m

[Jordan Dunbar @JordanDunbar10]

To mark 80 years since the liberation of Auschwitz I had the honour of speaking with survivors of the camp.
