St Pauls Carnival made a return to the streets this weekend, with a parade and street party, bringing thousands of people to BS2 in celebration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The event started with its usual parade, headed by a tribute to the Windrush Generation and the Bristol Bus Boycott.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This year is 60 years since the Bristol Bus Boycott, as well as 75 years since HMT Empire Windrush arrived in the country. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A poignant tribute was paid to both Windrush and Roy Hackett MBE, who challenged head on the Bristol Omnibus Company’s racism in 1963 after they refused to interview a Black man for a job.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
