Exhibition Label

Defend Georgina, 1990
This leaflet was produced for a campaign to prevent Georgina Addai’s deportation. Georgina moved to Hackney from Ghana in 1984 to join her student husband and worked for Hackney Council as a residential social worker. She worked for 6 years on a series of temporary visas but after her husband left, she and her son lost the right to remain in the UK. The Addais were one of many families that were affected by immigration laws.
