this is why we need black history month.
Black history month was/is a strategy to address imbalance. However unfortunately it also by it's very nature suggests that black history is somehow separate to "normal histpry"!!; "British History"!; "White history!";
It isnt separate, it's all intertwined, just history!
A full review of the curriculum that desanitises it, looks properly at all aspects, at key players in history, at tfe good, the bad and the ugly across history would be the best option, in my view!
In the mean time Black History Month provides knowledge and wider information but not necessarly context in terms of "History" in the rest of pupil studies
Our Welfare State. Is it broken?
