Black Perspective on Post War British History
To celebrate Black History Month, UCL and the New Perspectives group will
be holding a conference on the evening of Friday 20th and all day Saturday
the 21st of October 2000.
The Friday evening event will be held at University College London in the
Gustave Tuck Lecture Theatre. The Saturday conference will be held at the
Institute of Historical Research, University of London, Senate House, Malet
Street, London WC1E 7HU.
This conference focuses on the history of the various peoples of colour who
have migrated to the UK since the war. It will attempt to rescue this
history from the margins to which conventional perspectives have tended, (or
sought), to confine it. In that sense, this is neither Indian, Caribbean nor
African history, but part of British history.
Further information and a Booking Form are available on the UCL History
Department web site at: www.ucl.ac.uk/history/ please follow the 'eventsand
