JUS SOLI, 2016
The principle that a person's nationality at birth is determined by the place of birth.
JUS SOLI by Somebody Nobody examines the Black British experience, interrupting key events in Britain’s recent history to question attitudes, placing them in a wider context of what it means to be British. It also considers the emotional transition between generations and explores themes such as alienation and marginalisation in British society.
