HMT Empire Windrush, originally MV Monte Rosa, was a passenger liner and cruise ship launched in Germany in 1930. She was owned and operated by the German shipping line Hamburg Süd in the 1930s under the name Monte Rosa. During World War II she was operated by the German navy as a troopship. At the end of the war, she was taken by the British Government as a prize of war and renamed the Empire Windrush. In British service, she continued to be used as a troopship until March 1954, when the vessel caught fire and sank in the Mediterranean Sea with the loss of four crewmen. HMT stands for "His Majesty's Transport" and MV for "Motor Vessel".

  • Le HMT Empire Windrush - parfois aussi désigné sous le nom de MV Empire Windrush - est un navire symbolique dans l'histoire de l'immigration et du multiracialisme de la société britannique contemporaine. L’Empire Windrush débarqua le 22 juin 1948 à Tilbury, près de Londres, avec 492 immigrants des Caraïbes à son bord. Ces passagers constituèrent le premier groupe important d'immigrants en provenance des Antilles britanniques à arriver au Royaume-Uni après la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Faisant partie des 500 000 immigrants de la communauté afro-caribéenne du Royaume-Uni, ils constituent ce qu'on appelle aujourd'hui la « génération Windrush ». (fr)
