Southampton has celebrated Black History Month over a number of years‚ and its impact and influence has increased over the years.
Aims of Black History Month:
• To promote knowledge of black history and experience.
• To disseminate information on positive black contributions.
• To heighten confidence and awareness of black people in their cultural heritage.
We’re keen to get as many people involved in Black History Month in October this year, from across the University so if you have any ideas, would like to host an event or simply want to help out then please contact [email protected].
I’m also putting together a working group so if you would like to join, then please email [email protected].
