The Dave Pamah Show
Remembering Arthur Wint for Black History month with Dave Pamah
Episode notes
Black History Month is all about taking the time to educate ourselves and remember pioneers and trail-blazers like 6ft 5inches tall Arthur Wint, who, no doubt faced challenges and prejudice, but appeared to take everything in his enormous stride. Training to become a doctor is difficult. Training to become an Olympic athlete is difficult. Training to be a Royal Air Force (RAF) pilot and fighting in a World War is difficult. And yet Arthur Wint did not one, but all three of these things. Sometimes, at the same time. To me, Arthur Wint was not only a role model but also hero during my childhood so I'm proud to talk about him in this episode for UK's Black History Month.
