Divided Loyalties

DJ Semtex explores positive and negative experiences of being mixed race in 2014. Are loyalties divided or has society moved beyond categorisation by skin colour?

Semtex talks to young people from a range of backgrounds and across the UK, including Jordan from Rizzle Kicks, model Rob Evans, comedian Michelle De Swarte and playwright Sarah Lee.
