On June 22, 1948, the HMT Empire Windrush arrived at Tilbury Docks in Essex, England, carrying 492 passengers from the Caribbean. This event marked the beginning of post-war mass migration from the Caribbean to the UK, known as the Windrush Generation. In recognition of their contributions, June 22 has been commemorated as Windrush Day in the UK since 2018. Wikipedia
