As we embark on Black History Month, let's keep in mind the theme for this year: Reclaiming Narratives. This theme marks a significant shift towards recognizing and correcting the narratives of Black history and culture. Let's embrace the power of sharing our stories, allegories, and history. It's time for institutions such as schools to showcase the rich heritage of black history and celebrate its significance. This theme is a commitment to correcting historical inaccuracies and showcasing the untold success stories and the full complexity of Black heritage. It’s about taking control of our stories and honouring our heroes while challenging the narratives that have often overlooked the contributions and achievements of Black individuals, both in the UK and globally. #ReclaimingNarratives

The Unfinished Story: A Provocative Reflection on Black History Month in the UK. As Black History Month begins, it is a time for celebration and reflection, but also an opportunity to appreciate the many stories of Black individuals who have made our history. This year, the conversation must go beyond recognition. Are we ready to face the lasting impact of colonialism and systemic racism in the UK? Are we prepared to support movements like Black Lives Matter? We believe that education is key. The Windrush Generation's struggle and countless others who have contributed to modern British identity must be part of the mainstream narrative, not just footnotes in history. Let’s ensure we amplify these voices not only in October, but every day. Are you ready to make a lasting difference?
