Black History Month 'History Snapshots'

The University of Bristol’s history department is pleased to bring together a collection of short historical postings – or snapshots – that recognise the importance of Black History Month. This year’s contributions mark some key historical events, as well as people who demonstrated courage, resilience, and determination to advance black civil rights at home and across the globe. We are grateful for the contributions of students and staff alike. We hope you find these postings thought-provoking and a useful starting-point for further historical inquiry.

Please follow the series on the History Department’s Twitter account or by using the hashtag #HistorySnapshot.
