The Black Curriculum is a social enterprise founded in 2019 by young people to address the lack of Black British history in the UK Curriculum. They aim to improve social cohesion and facilitate change through delivering arts focused Black history programmes, providing teacher training and campaigning through mobilising young people.
On their site you'll find information on their school programs and teacher training, as well as free and for purchase learning resources across the whole school curriculum.
Developing from a volunteer-led community project established in 1982, The Northamptonshire Black History Association has over the years conducted research projects and created educational resources to reveal the hidden Black histories of Northamptonshire, highlighting the contributions of people of African, Asian and Caribbean origins to the country. Previously known as the Northamptonshire Black History Project, on their website you can find timelines as well as project and community archives.
Impact of Omission is a powerful initiative striving to redress the lack of compulsory education on Britain's history with colonialism and the slave trade. On their site you'll find a survey aiming to gather data on the true state of Britain's curriculum, as well as petitions and letter templates you can send to education officials.  
Where Are You Really From? is a fantastic project designed by The Inclusion Agency (TIA), sharing and digitalising the stories of black and brown people's rural lives from across south west England. They aim to increase understanding between different ethnic backgrounds living in rural communities, to build empathy and celebrate diverse histories and resilience. 
One of the founding members of TIA, Louisa Adjoa Parker is a British writer and poet of Ghanaian and English heritage who lives in south west England.  Passionate about telling the stories of marginalised voices and making literature accessible to everyone, Louisa has written books and exhibitions exploring black, Asian and ethnically diverse history in the south west, and has delivered creative writing workshops in schools, prisons, universities, colleges, libraries and other community settings. 
'Black Presence: Asian and Black History in Britain' is a partnership between The National Archives (formerly the Public Record Office) and the Black and Asian Studies Association (BASA), funded by the New Opportunities Fund.
Digitalising documents predominantly from the National Archives, this online exhibition covers Black and Asian history in Britain from 1500 to 1850. On this site you will find interactive learning journeys and galleries that highlight how Black and Asian people formed an integral part of British society during this period.
Convenor of the first MA in Black British History in the UK and a 2020 AHRC/BBC Radio 3 New Generation Thinker, Christienna Fryar is a historian of modern Britain, the British Empire, and the modern Caribbean. At the heart of her work is the conviction that Britain and its history cannot be understood in isolation from the Caribbean. The Rural Black History project owes its creation to work done under Dr. Fryar's 19/20 undergraduate module, Black British History: A Long and Varied Past, at Goldsmiths, University of London.
Miranda Kaufmann is a historian and journalist specialising in Black British History, and is a senior researcher at the Institute of Commonwealth Studies. Author of the critically acclaimed Black Tudors: The Untold Story, it is this book's chapter on "Cattelena of Almondsbury" that provides the source material for stage one of our project. On her website you can find links to Black Tudors, articles, upcoming talks and events, and information on future work.
Caroline Bressey is a cultural and historical geographer in the Department of Geography University College London where she has been a lecturer since 2008.  Her main research focus is the lives of Black women and men in Victorian London, Victorian anti-racist activism and the representation of history in heritage sites. For the Rural Black History Project, Bressey's article on "Cultural archaelogy and historical geographies of the black presence in rural England" has been an invaluable resource, and has provided a significant proportion of the case studies used in our project.
