Episode 3 - Guy Lowe-Barrow MBE

In this episode James sits down with Staff Sergeant Guy Lowe-Barrow who grew up in St Vincent and The Grenadines - a country where it's still illegal to be gay. In 2001, Guy was one of the first individuals to be recruited by the British Army from The Caribbean. He was awarded an MBE for his services to diversity and inclusion in 2020. Guy talks about what it means to be a queer person of colour in the Army, growing up in a country that doesn't accept you, UK Black Pride and how far attitudes have changed in the last two decades.
