On this six-week in-person course we will study how images of identifiable Black people from British history help us to repopulate and reconstruct their personal lives, communities, and associations across three centuries.
On a broader level, what can they tell us about how Black people in Britain have navigated and responded to the transitions from enslavement to abolition, independence, and the civil rights movements of the 20th century?
Specialising in Black British history and literature, S.I. Martin has worked with museums, archives, and the education sector bringing diverse histories to wider audiences. He has published six books of historical fiction, non-fiction, and museum studies for adults and young people.
