Black History Month gives everyone the opportunity to share, celebrate and understand the impact of black heritage and culture.
People from African and Caribbean backgrounds have been a fundamental part of British history for centuries.
More recently, greater attention has been paid to the importance of the Windrush generation and the Black Lives Matter movement, especially since the death of George Floyd in May 2020.
Black History Month is an opportunity to understand Black histories, going beyond stories of racism and slavery to spotlight Black achievement. For us to understand where we are, we must understand our past and how we got here, including the events and people who shaped the way Britain stands today.
The event will be chaired by Mohammed Yasin and supported by Yassar Mohammed, we aim to have a number of key speakers and grass root voices.
We look forward to welcoming you to the event.
