This week, Matt is joined by a man rarely lost for words. From the streets of Tottenham to the heart of British politics, Labour MP David Lammy has battled class inequality, racial discrimination and personal loss yet remains undaunted. In this episode of How I Got There, Matt and David discuss the jump from urban poverty to the halls of Harvard, diversity in 80’s London, the day his father left for good, and the power of independence in politics.
