''Guerrilla'' is a 2017 British miniseries about an activist couple in London c. 1971 during a time of social turmoil when Britain has recently passed the Immigration Act 1971 as law. It stars Creator/IdrisElba, Creator/FreidaPinto, Creator/RoryKinnear and Creator/BabouCeesay. Jas (Pinto) and Marcus (Ceesay) are members of the British Black Panthers, working now to politically educate black prisoners. Due to facing high unemployment and police brutality, many Black British and British Asian English people are angry at the government.

* RaceLift: Critics have accused the series of [[InvokedTrope invoking]] this by making Jas South Asian and not black. Actual members of the British Black Panthers have defended the show, however, saying the Black Panthers were also often South Asian (women included) and "black" then was used as an umbrella term for both. The issue of gendered racism has come up due to the lack of South Asian men and Black women as co-leading roles in the series though.
