Great Britain has a unique, dynamic culture that gets its life from the rich mix of people who live here. For the fifth year running, October heralds the start of one of the key cultural events in the UK arts calendar that perfectly exemplified this – the highly anticipated Black History Month.
A celebration of the diversity of black society in the UK, the month long series of events highlights the myriad contributions black men and women have made to the development of British society, technology, economy and culture over the decades.
