Thank you to Cheryl @biasmagazine for an excellent presentation on Dr Risien Russell.

[Windrush Foundation @WindrushF]

Russell's father was Scottish and known as the 'Sugar King' in Guyana

[Windrush Foundation @WindrushF]

At 60 Russell was described as a "small, dapper and youthful looking man"

[Windrush Foundation @WindrushF]

Russel also gained notoriety & in some cases unpopularity from his role in the courts

[Windrush Foundation @WindrushF]

Russell spent time in both Berlin and Paris, might he of been bi-lingual?

[Windrush Foundation @WindrushF]

James Risien Russell, born in Guyana was mixed race and the son of a plantation owner
