Making History: Black Oxford Walking Tour with Angela Morgan

Inspired by Pamela Roberts’s book Black Oxford, this tour follows in the footsteps of Oxford’s Black pioneers and trailblazers. Come hear the stories of the African students who made history at the University and beyond.

Who was the first black student to attend Oxford University?

Who were the first black Rhodes Scholars?

What did they do to cope with the challenges they faced?

What did they achieve, and what is their legacy for future generations of students?

This walking tour will pass by some of the colleges and places associated with the pioneers and other Black students who followed in their wake.

Angela Morgan is a Blue Badge Tourist Guide.

The same tour will be given twice (once at 12-2PM and again 5-7PM). Please sign up for one time only.
