About
Nadine White is a multi-award-winning British journalist, filmmaker and author, renowned for her powerful investigations and storytelling on race, social justice and culture.
In 2021, Nadine became Britain’s first dedicated Race Correspondent, making history in British journalism. In that pioneering role, she reported on race, social justice and inequality, producing agenda-setting investigations that exposed racism during the Ukraine war, uncovered discriminatory language in government documents, inequalities across state institutions, pay disparities in corporations, plus more.
With more than a decade in newsrooms, Nadine has led national coverage on race and identity, following her earlier career as a writer at The Voice - Britain’s longest-running Black newspaper.
A Forbes 30 Under 30 honouree, Nadine made history as the first Black reporter shortlisted for the prestigious Paul Foot Award for investigative journalism. She later won the Paulette Wilson Windrush Award for her outstanding reporting on the Windrush scandal. Her work has been recognised by Parliament, the British Journalism Awards, Amnesty International and the BBC, which named her among those “making Black history now”.
The Guardian hailed Nadine as one of the “20 Britons who deserve to be on a postage stamp”, while Glamour named her among “9 Black women fighting to make the UK a more equal place”.
As a filmmaker, Nadine’s debut documentary Barrel Children: The Families Windrush Left Behind (2023) became a UK box-office success, later earning her the Menelik Shabazz Legacy Award at the Windrush Caribbean Film Festival - making her the first woman ever to receive the honour. The film continues to spark global dialogue on Caribbean migration, family separation and identity.
Beyond journalism and film, Nadine is a sought-after speaker and cultural commentator whose work continues to shape conversations about race, identity and belonging across Britain and the Caribbean.
