Will Thorne Staff WriterWhen Steve McQueen was curating the narratives for his Amazon Prime Video anthology “Small Axe,” the year 1968 felt like the best place to start.This was because it was a year of mass strikes in France, a year in which Conservative politician Enoch Powell made his infamous “rivers of blood” speech and a year in which Frank Crichlow (played by Shaun Parkes in the “Mangrove” installment) named his restaurant and fought to keep its doors open in the face of repeated police
