On June 8th, a knife attack in Belfast, Northern Ireland, in the UK, was seen on video. The assailant was an African asylum seeker, and the victim was a local white resident.

He joins us from Oxford to discuss this and other racist incidents and what they tell us about politics and racism in Britain.
