Play slide on timer with the song in the background.
Who are the British?Ask us, and you will find that we dance to music from
America, Africa and Asia; we eat food from Ireland,Italy and Jamaica; we speak more than three hundredlanguages and we know over four hundred different
ways to cook a potato. We look Celtic, Arab andBengali; we wear kilts, saris and football shorts; and ifyou get very close to us and look right into our eyes,you can almost see the history of the whole world.
Children don’t want to live in a world where everybody lookslike them; they are all ready to embrace a
multicultural, multi-coloured land where every child isequal and all children have a poem to call their own. If
Britain is going to be great in the future, it will bebecause these kids want curry and chips, mangoes
and strawberries and banana crumble, and they thinkof all these as British.
The British are not a single tribe, or a single religion,and we don’t come from a single place. But we are
building a home where we are all able to be who wewant to be, yet still be British.
That is what we do: we take, we adapt, and we moveforward.
We are the British. We are Britain.
Benjamin Zephaniah

TASK – GET CREATIVE
• Creator God, we gather together as one community. We gather as people of conscience and as people of varying beliefs. We gather from different backgrounds bringing together the diversity of your people in one place: different cultures, ages, genders, and life experiences. But we gather in one spirit and with one purpose, to do your will.
• Amen
