Ms Eavis said: " He was representing The Black community in a very predominately white festival and obviously that's a really important moment for us, but it's also a little bit late maybe.
" We should have probably done it before. "
Sir Lenny was discussing diversity and places where different groups do not mix when He Said : " It's interesting to watch Glastonbury and look at The Audience and not see any Black People there.
" I'm always surprised by the lack of black and brown faces at festivals. I think, 'Wow, that's still very much a dominant culture thing'. "

" Somewhere The Gatekeepers have changed, because now we're allowed to have you on Mastermind. But how long did that take?
" We still want more representation because we deserve it. We Are British citizens, We Are colonials.
" We've been in This Country , we have grown up in This Country , we've contributed and a lot of us feel it still isn't being reciprocated enough.
