In a brand new documentary David Harewood investigates the shocking statistics that Covid-19 is killing people of colour far beyond their white counterparts. By speaking to a number of medical professionals and people who have lost loved ones as a result of Covid-19 his journey takes him much deeper in to socio-economic findings alongside the influence of systematic racism and oppression. We have all been affected by the virus in the last twelve months and this documentary shines a light on specific communities and industry roles. There are some harsh truths, realities and discoveries that this documentary uncovers in an often hard to watch hour of TV.

David Harewood: Psychosis and Me was first aired on BBC Two during Mental Health Awareness Week of 2019. What began as a documentary to retrace the steps and look into why David had a breakdown in his twenties, very quickly went on to help break down the stigma surrounding psychosis. The language we now associate with psychosis has changed dramatically for the better. And for many a diagnosis of psychosis is now far less of a taboo subject. Following the broadcast of the documentary visits to Mind’s psychosis pages rose by 107 per cent in comparison to the daily average. Psychosis and Me has gone on to win multiple awards alongside receiving a BAFTA nomination. But what David is most proud of is its direct impact. People still stop him to say thank you, for how it has helped them or a loved one understand and tell their own story of psychosis.
