Dear List,
When volunteering in archives, using archives for research purposes, and applying for archive jobs, I have never met a non-white archivist. Does anyone have any info on Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic Archivists in the UK? I am looking for data about the ethnic backgrounds of archivists in the UK, but also personal experiences of archivists, like: did you ever feel your race mattered when servicing customers or advancing your career? And is there any encouragement or are there any role models for archive volunteers from non-white backgrounds?
Thank you and best wishes
Angel
