A lack of history and knowledge of self plays a huge role in the issues our community faces, particularly young people, who are often disengaged from their African identity. Our African History Season uses audio-visuals, musical performances, motivational speeches, film, play, and a pan-Africanism presentation to deal with the issues, led by Brother Andrew ‘The Investigator’ Muhammad, Kimba, Kwaku and Nana Asante.

Programme Schedule:

1. First screening of the documentary ‘London’s African History: Through Representations In The Capital’, which highlights streets, buildings, parks and monuments with an African connection. Friday October 18th, 6 – 9 PM Free.
2. ‘Africa: Did You Know?’ A Hip-Hop Musical featuring rapper Kimba. Followed by a Q&A. Friday October 25th, 6 – 9 PM. £5 adults, £10 on the day; under-18.s Free. Purchase a ticket here
3. Highlighting Pioneering Non-Anglo Diasporan And Continental Pan-Africanists.  Presentation by community activist Nana Asante. Monday November 4th, 6.30-8.30 PM. Free.
