I set out below the flier (minus a picture of John Archer) for the Black & Asian Studies Association Conference on Saturday 27 June at Clapham Junction in Battersea.
 
I would be grateful if you would:
 
(a) forward it to anyone you know interested in one, more or all of: UK Black & Asian, Battersea,  music, labour movement, Black Atlantic, Pan-African, and anti-racism history, whether as individuals, or as members of an organisation or a network.
 
(b) print it off and put it on any notice boards you can.
 
If you would like the details with the picture of Archer in a file attachment please email me. Members of BASA have already been sent the file.
 
Thank you.
