Flyer: ‘Would This Man Frighten Your Children’ - 1988

About

On 25 January 1988, Granada Television’s headquarters in Manchester were picketed by disabled protestors after the company overturned a decision to cast disabled actor Nabil Shaban in a children’s television drama.

The image is a flyer used at the protest.

Most of the space has a black and white photograph of disabled actor Nabil Shaban talking to a group of children with the words “Would This Man Frighten Your Children?”

“Photo by Phil Rider” is at the bottom in block capitals.
