Black History Month – Listen to the Voices
https://www.lbc.co.uk/radio/presenters/david-lammy/black-history-is-british-history-black-history-month-commemoration/ In this link David Lammy, the MP for Tottenham since 2000 laments the need for Black History Month. He wishes that the contribution of and the part played by black people in British History was recognised, understood and properly valued. He is also in conversation with the veteran journalist Sir Trevor MacDonald who describes the history he learnt at school in Trinidad, which bore little or no relationship to his or his family’s experience, in which black people were hidden from our story and rarely if ever mentioned.
