Looking for something educational and enlightening for Black History Month this October? Check out this event, exploring the lives of black folks in London, before the Windrush set sail in 1948. Hosted by Skin Deep at St. Ann’s Library, London on the 13th October, the event aims to shed light:
“on the hidden history of London and the contributions made by people of African and Caribbean descent to London in the areas of Literature, Politics, Music and Health & Welfare before 1948. Most people believe that Black people only came here in 1948. Black people have lived in Britain since Roman times. Moors were a common sight in Elizabethan England. There were great Black personalities in 18th and 19th century Britain. This presentation tells their story.”
