The Politics of Race: The Black British Response to South African Apartheid with Dr Elizabeth Williams

Tuesday 27th October 2015

Join us for an evening of discussion on how Black Britons, fighting racism in British society, identified and expressed solidarity with Black South Africans during the Apartheid years.

Dr Elizabeth Williams will introduce her new book, the first book to examine the British support for the anti-apartheid movement among Black British communities. Williams tells the story of the compassion, commitment and anger at injustice within our Black Communities.
