Welcome to Black History Month 2021
We’re super excited to bring you this campaign where you’ll have the opportunity to celebrate Black culture and heritage, learn about Black History from a variety of perspectives and try something new!
The resurgence of the Black Lives Matter movement last year stands as a reminder to us all that racial injustice is still prevalent in our society and we each need to do what we can to educate ourselves on these issues. It is important to confront the challenging questions raised about race and racial inequality as well as showcase the immense achievements of Black people both past and present – what better way to learn more than to take part in some of our events?
Black History Month here at QMSU and BLSA is brought to you by our Organising Committee and many of our societies and student groups who have worked to bring you a great range of events and activities. We’re committed to shining a light on the diversity of our Black students so make sure to check out the full programme as well as our Culture List where you can discover a great selection of books, films, TV shows and music and more.
We can’t wait to see you there!
