A new Channel 4 documentary will detail the conversation many black parents have with their children to explain that their skin colour will mark them out for prejudice and challenges not faced by white people. It will be part of a series of programmes exploring different aspects of the black experience in modern Britain. Black children often receive their first talk between the ages of four and seven and it is described as “the day a child loses their innocence”. A one-off doc revealing a part of black British life little known about outside the black community. “I’m grateful to Whisper for helping make this work financially and their real commitment to telling these stories and supporting black filmmakers.”PA Media
