Civil Rights & Black History

I am quite aware of the civil rights movements in America but when it comes to the Black history of Britain I feel it's not as widespread. I've included a few videos below on Britain's black history that goes untold.

For the 'past, present and future' brief I've thought about the question

"If black Britons were fully aware of their contextual history, how would they use that to shape their future and their children's future?"

Since George Floyds Murder, answers to this question have began to surface.

The BLM Movement is taking action to ensure that Organisations of the Arts & heritage are being held accountable in decolonising "their relationship with the UK Black community and their workforce, collections and programmes”.
