first what is it like being born to immigrant parents in a country where there is growing support for anti—immigration parties? bbc africa's daniel henry investigates how young people of african heritage are making their way in europe's big cities. when people ask, where are you from? they usually follow up with another question. where are you really from? i'm from cameroon, west africa. london. i'm from ghana. portugal. so i'm from somalia and the partners from ghana and my other partner is from morocco. my somali heritage, going back home, i wouldn't be considered fully somali. being in sweden, i'm not really considered swedish. personal question, i know. but for some, it's very political. look at the islamization of our country.

there is a lot of moroccans in holland and makes the streets unsafe. integration, integration. and i ask what does that mean? growing up with the values of immigrant parents in a country where support is growing for anti—immigration parties, is not easy. so i wanted to find out if europe's changing political mood is affecting the way young people of african heritage are defining home and celebrating the culture they've been raised in. our parents came here, right? we are born here. somalia is not the same for me as it is for my mother. this is it, this is final. everything else is different. this is african diaspora diaries. my name is daniel henry, the bbc africa reporter.

east london is home for me, it's what i was born, it's where i was raised and crucially, it's where i get my haircut. good to see you. but for talking about going back home, that's barbados where my family comes from. it's always fun going back, but as i go on with it, i realise how special the strips were made many think, realise how special those trips were made many think, but if you've never been able to visit your country of origin? because it's a place for your family left to keep you safe. how do you celebrate a culture of a country that you've never seen? where you're from, you're not going to forget where you're from, and how you are raised are not going to forget how you are raised. all you're going to do is when you get to the to the new phase, you're going to add that to what is already you. you've got to do with this place now. you can't forget where you've come from, and you've also got to fit in. they have to deal with it. so you've got to deal with it. but how? i headed to amsterdam to find out.

the co—founder of a clothing line called the daily paper. he was born in somalia and his family arrived in europe when he was a little boy. they were close to 2 million people in the netherlands with parents that emigrated to the country and call it home. so i'm from somalia and jefferson, my partner is from ghana. my other partner is from morocco. blending those cultures like amsterdam and like our african heritage together that is literally the daily paper. daily paper is a reflection of the three founders. can you show me what it means? certainly. hussain has never been back to somalia, he finds ways to show connections to the country through his clothing. what is it about that logo they think represents? it's an masai shield. the masai is a nomadic tribe, wherever they go there home. wherever they go they're home.

so we have the same feeling. we relate to that. we're going to make him look extra pretty. the music festival today. today? yeah, it's like it's impressive, it's been going on for more than 15 years and one of my favourites. are you coming? yeah. all right. it's literally like everybody from amsterdam and outside of amsterdam that loves hip hop culture comes here. daily paper got big around the same time dutch hip—hop became big

in the netherlands and one of the core supporters of the hip hop industry there was the first people to really embrace daily paper as a label and yet, they prodded to mass and yeah, they prodded to mass popularity. we set a lot of time, hip—hop connects people. we said a lot of time, hip—hop connects people. it brings some different cultures together if you look around you at this festival, there is evidence of that. and they're also telling our stories. a lot of the lyrics, what they talk about in their lyrics are our stories. who you do you think does that? i like yung nnelg, he's dope. oh, that's him right there. with the rugby shirt? with the rugby shirt.

want to say hi? yung nnelg. pleasure to meet you. we really were. it is like what kind of music they listen to was megan said young tell me about people, the musicians like you of african descent who are making music here in holland. what kind of stories are you telling? ok, i try to tell the story of where i come from and what my environment has taught me the norms and values that i got from my home, from my parents, and then like implying that with this culture type wave that we are in right now, we can blend those things together. and then they are going

to go on the stage soon, some going to let you go. really good to meet you, brother. it's interesting walking around this festival and you see all of these artists of african descent that are headlining of these people that are running the show and that the same time, you walk around and you see people who are wearing the clothing, the brands, the prints, that they've been putting together for years and this is part of amsterdam has reached a point where to celebrate being of african descent to celebrate being dutch at the same time, that people here are comfortable with that. you can wear what you like, but true for everyone in that's not true for everyone in amsterdam. last year, the dutch parliament band the full islamic veil in some places. no neck look at the islamization of our country.

the people want to be in charge again, it's not only american first, it's also holland first and that is what i am trying to accomplish. some people say you are a bit of a fascist. do not listen to those people. that is totally untrue. he leads the freedom party the second largest in dutch politics and they called to than the quran. ideas like that would make life even more difficult for hussein and his family. he was two years old and i caught up with him in his favourite coffee shop. before we actually lived in our own house, we lived and

and asylum—seekers centre and i think we had a lot of refugees coming in from bosnia, serbia, around that area and we used to live in the city which was outside of amsterdam in a big centre and i had a great time, because i'm young, i'm a great time, because i'm young, i'm a kid and everybody around me are kids. when i think about it now,. that place is really bad actually. it was kind of like a prison. there is still, i think it's quite difficult. would you like to go to somalia was yellow i would definitely i would like to go but at the same timei i would like to go but at the same time i don't because at the end of

the day, we are always looking for a place that you can really call home, right? eventually his family made a life in the netherlands, despite all he has achieved, he says that for some, it will never be enough. for me, always thinking that they have to forget my culture where i am from, that is what everyone tells you, they have to integrate. but the things i've heard on the news, integration, integration, integration. what does that mean? what does that actually mean? so basically, whatever they had, i must remove that and go become you. this kind of talk from politicians, from all of the world. notjust kind of talk from politicians, from all of the world. not just the netherlands, all of europe, the united states, everywhere, i keep hearing this and i'm like, 0k. should i actually spend my time and

energy trying to tell them to chill? or shade just energy trying to tell them to chill? or shadejust accept the energy trying to tell them to chill? or shade just accept the fact that a lot of these kind of, this comes from ignorance because they don't wa nt to from ignorance because they don't want to know about other cultures. they just want their own culture, this is it, this is final. and everything else is different, go back to your own country. he will not let his connection to somalia be defined by people or politics. his co—founder, jefferson, agrees. he refuses to let other people dictate what it means to be a young black man in the netherlands. the demographic, back in the date they used to tease a lot of african descent, you are like a smelling fish, they were used to teasing nigerians and not knowing the air from the same continent. because of

all of those people teasing. and some are even afraid to say they we re some are even afraid to say they were from there, they would say there is sudanese just to be accepted amongst them. or they would have like dark skinned and like light—skinned complexity, how can he be ashamed of your own, where you're from, you know? we live in a multicultural society so you have to be open for new things. during the world cup, yet some moroccans playing for the morocco team and some dutch people for wearing moroccan jerseys and they rooted for morocco. so seeing something like that, i morocco. so seeing something like that, lam morocco. so seeing something like that, i am very happy, i'm like ok, we are getting there, there is some positive things going on. so yeah, people are getting more open and i feel like the new generation is going to definitely make a difference. a star in scandinavia

whose family story starts and scandinavia, she has put up (music) when herfamily (music) when her family moved to escape the civil war, they headed to europe, where she was born and then finland before eventually settling in sweden. around 280,000 live in europe. more so than any other european country. her family is made a home here but her mother remembers the life they left behind. do you think looking at what your

children do now, do you think that it was worth it to move? a lot of somalian parents, i'd really too happy to be living here. i think they are happy for us, but they know what they had to leave behind, a whole country that we loved that is war—torn. and not what he used to be and obviously, there's a lot of hurt there for somalian parents. but for there for somalian parents. but for the opportunities that the children have, they are very thankful for that. cherrie has never been to somalia.

most of her friends and memories are made here in the swedish suburb. hello, nice to meet you. one of the best that we have here. he has looked after us. what stuck out when you first met and she came through? she seemed more lively, more happy, he could see that she was going to bea he could see that she was going to be a leader. so important. it is tough, like living here is so tough

and it is so hard for some people to see what we are doing that is good. so you have to do something better than good, then what other people do oi'i than good, then what other people do on the other side. for them to acce pt on the other side. for them to accept you. and she was among the oi'ies accept you. and she was among the ones who always fought to do something like, the best. lots of artists, they can sing. you can learn nothing from what they sing. she is among the ones that can sing and you can learn something from them and they feel that this is something that we can learn from. and that is so important. and i will i and that is so important. and i will , she is the best. families from all over the world live here. some have left countries of war to find peace. but some politicians... connection

between immigration and crime. we look at rain, for example, a very close current internet connection. speaking in 2010. fast—forward to elections and he has a new message to go to the new suit as he redefines his pitch. he has changed that. we should take care of those were already years and they cannot speak swedish. swedish democrats were a

fringe group. but he picked up support in the 2018 elections and 110w support in the 2018 elections and now a far right party with origins in neo—nazi is and is the third largest party in politics. when i caught up with cherrie at her studio the votes had not been counted yet. but she knew why the message is going mainstream. counted yet. but she knew why the message is going mainstreamm counted yet. but she knew why the message is going mainstream. it is a thing of people all over the world not learning past mistakes and what the order generation instead, for us it was the turkish and he keeps on going like that and we were at the early to thousands, we came in a lot because of the war and everything that's been going on. and they don't know how to speak swedish, you know,

and now you see like most of them the lyrics are somalian and other people actually are doing a lot of stuff and people like me in music. hip—hop was not huge at all in sweden just hip—hop was not huge at all in swedenjust a hip—hop was not huge at all in sweden just a couple of years ago. but then we came into the next. we arejust but then we came into the next. we are just really cool people but that's what it is people just hate what ever is unknown, for instance, asa what ever is unknown, for instance, as a woman of somali, going back home. i would as a woman of somali, going back home. iwould not as a woman of somali, going back home. i would not be considered fully somali. and being here in sweden, i'm not considered swedish. but i feel that both, but not fully, that makes sense. because i've never been to somalia and i definitely do not feel swedish, i do not look

swedish. so there's always been a sense of uncertainty because of that. i do not have any roots like that. i do not have any roots like that anywhere and growing up, if you don't have that, that will confuse you. (music) we come from different backgrounds, the culture that have been a part of where i've grown up. amongst kurdish, turkish, gambian, somali, where i ate their food and spoke their languages and i feel like that is the culture that represents me the most. it came out of nothing, it came out of unity. so, ican

so, i can make music that represents young somali girls all over the world, but also that would hopefully give a better understanding to the older generation are parents, grandparents, a better understanding of what we go through. because our pa rents of what we go through. because our parents came here, right? we are born here. so we have different experiences of what it means to be a refugee or what it means to be somali. somali for me is not the same for what my mum is. she knew it when it was peaceful, you know? i've heard stories about it. i'm never going to be able to know what it was. i went to barbados so often, i

thought that everyone did that. that eve ryo ne thought that everyone did that. that everyone that was of caribbean or african descent just automatically went back. but seeing these guys, it showed me that even if you have not had the opportunity, there is still a way to create that connection and express that connection. that is a pa rt express that connection. that is a part of for you are. yeah. hello there. friday was the sort of data might have let you scratching your head and wondering if it was still february. the weather will not send up to me reminders ahead. it states pretty mild not always as mild as this, 17 degrees as the temperature we got up to slightly 17.5 degrees and parts of north wells on friday afternoon. because of this very warm air from a long way south, really mild there for

this time of year. many of us basked in sunshine but notice from the satellite picture there was a bit more cloud across the northern parts of the uk and i think cloud will be a biggerfeature of of the uk and i think cloud will be a bigger feature of the forecast of the next few days, southern england in south wales with a spot of drizzle, fair amount of cloud as well. northeast england in northeast scotla nd well. northeast england in northeast scotland seeing the best of the sunshine and what will be quite a breezy day, but again, even if you stick with the cloud, you're looking at highs from 11 to 1a degrees and may be up to around 15 and the sunnier parts of eastern england. as we move out of saturday and into sunday, the set up looks like this. high pressure across a big part of europe, blocking weather systems trying to push and from the west. so these fronts moving into western areas will not sweep through neatly and they get stuck running against that block of high pressure so they just drift across and that is where we will see some patches of rain in

those temperatures again after and 15 degrees. low pressure in church as we head to the start of the new working week, this weather front is giving us a little bit of a headache at the moment, it may be a ripple i’u ns at the moment, it may be a ripple runs up this and brings some patchy rain, into parts of the midlands and east anglia and will have to keep an eye on that. also in pushing towards the northwest, temperatures just showing signs of dropping off a little bit. with an area of low pressure moving into the north of the british isles, moving into tuesday, we do slightly change the source of air, switching around to the north or north westerly, so that will bring some cooler air and northern parts of the uk, still some milderair in the northern parts of the uk, still some milder air in the milder wings, but on tuesday we will feel some of the effects of that cooler air, particularly across northern parts of scotla nd particularly across northern parts of scotland and we could see some wintry showers across the northern

area, still relatively mild about 11 or 12 degrees and tuesday is a drag is in sunshine. on wednesday, we're going to bring a frontal system to the northwest of the uk, so northern ireland must in parts of scotland, further south, largely driver sunshine, but the wind back westerly and asa sunshine, but the wind back westerly and as a consequence, those temperatures are back up into double digits forjust temperatures are back up into double digits for just about all of us. temperatures are back up into double digits forjust about all of us. and that really takes us towards the end of next week and on into the following weekend, high pressure building back across parts of europe, the building back towards the british isles, there is uncertainty about how strong that wind will build into what extends the weather systems will be allowed to push and from the west, there may be some rain at times particularly in western areas, but this battle ground of low pressure to the high pressure to the east always favours bringing usa pressure to the east always favours bringing us a southerly flow of winds which means relatively mild weather and the next week and, certainly by day, the could be some relatively chilly nights lb drive for many but there is a chance of

some rain creeping in towards the west. tonight at ten — donald trump insists he has no choice but to use emergency powers, to fund a border wall with mexico. defying criticism — including from his own party — he says the us faces an "invasion" of migrants, drugs, and human traffickers. in areas where we don't have a barrier, then very hard to make america great again. but democrats say the president's claims are bogus, and they'll see him in court. also tonight... should she be allowed to return to the uk? shamima begum's family says yes. mi6 warns ex—members of the islamic state group still pose a threat. chanting: this is what democracy looks like! making their voices heard — schoolchildren across the country protest over climate change. most knee and hip replacements now last much longer
