People bound for Royal Ascot race meeting walk past the National Windrush Monument in Waterloo Station in London, Thursday June 22, 2023. Windrush Day is being marked on Thursday on what is the 75th anniversary of the arrival of the ship the Empire Windrush on June 22, 1948. It became a symbol of the post-war migration that transformed the U.K. and its culture. The term Windrush generation has come to stand for hundreds of thousands of people who arrived in the U.K. between the late 1940s and early 1970s, especially those from former British colonies in the Caribbean.
