My friends and I attended a Saturday school in Hackney in the 80s.The under education of black kids is another instrument of the racist structure
chokalateboywonder-
thanks for sharing that, I’m assuming that BHM in primary and secondary schools today grows year on year. But I suspect also that pan Africa studies for children and their parents are still offered privately today.
I read somewhere ‘A child not taught by their parents, will be taught by the World‘.
I will encourage my GF to attend pan-African studies with her son before he attends secondary school.

@lynx we learnt no black history at school back in the 80s, my daughters did at secondary school albeit very prescriptive as part of their curriculum.
Conversely, my black friends went to pan African studies, they said is was very informative. Gave them a sense of pride and purpose, instead of a sense of place in the UK.
I am looking forward to the series of events we have planned at work next month.
