The National Union of Journalists (NUJ) and its Black Members’ Council is hosting its annual free event to celebrate the life and work of trailblazer Claudia Jones.
A heroine of modern times – a journalist, activist and campaigner – perhaps best known as one of the founding members of The Notting Hill Carnival and the first black newspaper, The West Indian Gazette and Afro-Asian Caribbean News, this remarkable black woman made a significant contribution to society.
The NUJ invites you to join us in remembering her life and the continuing struggle for equality today. The in-person event is one not to miss!
GUEST SPEAKER: Gary Younge
Gary Younge is an award-winning journalist, author and broadcaster. Now a professor of Sociology at the University of Manchester, he is also a former Guardian columnist and NUJ Member of Honour.
