Black History Month was first celebrated in the UK in October 1987. Over 30 years later, it's become a time to celebrate the culture and contributions of Black Britons, as well as the African diaspora around the world. Whether you’re a student or a member of staff, you can help us celebrate by contributing to our Black History Month Recommendations list. Tell us about your favourite culture by black and minority ethnic artists and creators - whether it's films or TV shows, books, music, theatre, or anything else you want others to know about – and say a little something about why you’re recommending it. Did it highlight something important, or make you think about things from a different perspective? Did it make you feel empowered? Or is it a great piece of culture you think others would enjoy?Make your submission by October 16th for consideration for our list, to be launched on October 26th!
