Paul Stephenson & The Bristol Bus Boycott
An audio-visual presentation with primary source material highlighting the fact that there was a bus boycott in Britain in 1963. It's an accessible family-friendly presentation, which will also point out the connections with cricket, the first race relations law, Tony Benn, newly independent Caribbean states, and Martin Luther King's 'I Have A Dream Speech'.
John Archer & Black Politics
An audio-visual presentation that goes beyond the fact that John Archer became London's first African mayor in 1913. It's an accessible family-friendly presentation, which will show that besides being a councillor, he was a Labour party activist whose successful collaboration with an Asian parliamentary candidate sowed the seeds of the party's Black Sections over half a century earlier. An attendee of the 1900 pan-African conference, he was talking about issues such as reparations, long before it took hold in the 1990s
