Have you forgotten that once we were brought here we were robbed of our names,robbed of our language,we lost our religion,our culture,our God? And many of us by the way we act,we even lost our minds.

They were assembled at the Hoover factory in Cambuslang, Scotland.
The factory had a large canteen and I remember hearing that there was trouble cause by some people racing C5's round it
