British People, Black History Month UK 2022. The
place of black people in British history is sometimes thought of as a
story beginning with the arrival of Wonderland. In fact, Wonderland is just one
chapter in a long history. Blacks have lived in the country for centuries, and
the story goes that the presence of blacks in Britain dates back to Roman
times.
This is the history you did not learn in
school. When I was 16 I went to a bookstore and bought the book Stinging Power
from Peter Ferrer and it was the most important book in the world for black
British people of my generation. Because what he did shows that we are not
newcomers. Rather, we were part of a long, deep history. Which went back
centuries because we weren't.
Describing important moments in British history, all aspects of the British story are being kept out of the
picture. And I think it's time to dump her and move on. What we are really used
to today is that I have never heard that being black and being British are two
different things that you really can't be.
Black British history:
The fact that both were black was not really
British, and it was the history of books like Peter A. Frere's Reign that
showed me. They were always black British people. Black British history
is so diverse it's just a shame that you can't really take part in it at a
young age. And can't celebrate their identity. You do not want to be frustrated
if you cannot get the right pitch so invest in a good capo.
Don't go without understanding your
past. When I talk to young black people. So what they're telling me is that
they're just as frustrated as I was then. When I was old enough to learn more
about the long history of blacks in Britain, that is history.
They are not being taught in school
yet. When it comes to learning about Dark History, it was basically pumped out
within a month. From Nelson Mandela to my sequel to Martin Luther King, it
should have been a year in a row.
What a lot of people are taught in
school. They are biographies of individual black people. And there are a lot of
good things that come out of it that it's really nice that kids are learning
about my school now. And they will learn from Walter that this is great.
And I have a problem with that but if you only
do what you get. You just make these isolated dark characters and you don't
learn about them. These are the forces that cause Britain to negotiate with
Africa.
Chat with Africans you don't learn about. How
important was the economy of Chinese slavery in the 17th, 18th, and early 19th
centuries? We do not learn that after the American War of Independence and
until the Civil War, America's economic relations with Britain were based on
cotton and that is cotton.
African Americans By enslaving
African Americans we are told that these things did not happen in Britain and
we are told that some of these things happened in America. And you know it
wasn't on our soil and we treated black people very well.
And we gave them all these things when in
reality there was no difference. It's great that today we've learned about the
biographies of individual black personalities of the past.
Those stories were important to me when I was
growing up. But what we seem to be ignored so far is looking for other issues.
For example, the development of racial thinking in the 18th and 19th centuries,
or the centralization of slavery in the British economy, goes far beyond dark
history.
Biographies are fundamental to understanding
British history. Because it is a fundamental part of British history. I don't
know if this whole foreign history points to a sluggish empire or if they don't
really care about working black people.
Classes or women, in general, do not
know what the new science is proving. That African Romans lived in Britain.
There are those who are going to challenge it. They even threaten the black
man.
There have been people in Britain
since Roman times. There are people who feel the need. When it comes to online
conversations, these ideas are slandered on Twitter and social media. There are
people who want to face the facts instead of denying them. And then there are
the simple, uncontroversial things inside me.
The fact is that Britain was part of
the Roman Empire and the Roman Empire was multinational. An excellent example
of this is the woman with the ivory bracelet. He was a medieval Afro-Roman
living in the fourth century.
Know that she was African because of
the test on her remains. And the reason was that his luggage had an African
ivory bracelet. John Blaine was the trumpeter in the court of Tudors in the
court of Henry VIII. And they are the first black British.
For which we do not have a single name
and proof from the archived documents. We have a picture of him whose name is
on a document. The role of the 1511 Westminster Tournament.
She is the first black British to be named.
Which makes it really special in documents. Please tell, what's the story of
the big puppies. In which he wrote demanding an increase in salary.
He is now sending the request to his boss,
Henry VIII. Anyone who tells us that this is the person who values himself,
this is the person who values his abilities. And he is ready to give up and
demand a pay rise from Henry VIII. And when I was in school, I was taught about
the process of abolishing Britain.
This is what I was not told about
slaves. That Britain paid 20 20 million to slaves, which is about 17 billion today. Slavery was not only
abolished but slaves were compensated for the loss of their property.
Part of the elimination process that
I didn't learn in school. That is, I was not taught that ex-slaves are not
released immediately. And he was forced to work 45 hours a week for his former
employer for the next four to six years.
In this system, it was called an apprenticeship.
There is a special moment in British history that I think this year we
celebrated several hundred years from 1914 to 1918. But there is another set of
stories about another year. In which black soldiers returned from the war but
did not join the victory parade.
A year of ethnic riots in which a
black man was killed on the streets of a British city. It all happened in the
forgotten year of 1919.
What is black history month?
