Join teams from the People’s History Museum and Southern Voices for a Black History Month event inspired by the exhibition Exploring the Legacies of Empire: Some Perspectives from the Global South (which you can visit at the People’s History Museum until 12 January 2025).
From 10.00 am until 4.00 pm, you can drop into the People’s History Museum archive to delve into colonialism, and the struggles against imperialism, racism, migration, and the environment.
From 10.30 am until 12.30 pm, there will be a zine making workshop. Produce your own mini zine, taking inspiration from the South African ‘Drum’ magazine, an important document of Black political and social life in the 1950s and 1960s.
From 1.30 pm until 3.30pm, you can join an interactive workshop with Southern Voices looking at the 18th-century Maroon Wars in Jamaica. Explore local and global histories of anti-imperialism and anti-racism through group activities.
