The whole Emanuel community is proud to celebrate Black History Month 2022 and rise to the challenge, as expressed by Lynda-Louise Burrell, Managing Editor of Black History Month Magazine:
I don’t want you to just celebrate Windrush Day and Black History Month, but to challenge inequalities all year round and recognise the power and potential of equality, diversity, and inclusion to create stronger teams, new ways of working and more successful organisations.
I want you to know that as an ally, you will be privy to and enjoy rich cultural resources and share the benefits of achievements and contributions that are still being revealed, and those yet to come, still waiting to be discovered. There is a Caribbean saying that perfectly describes the need to work together and support one another’s self-realisation for the benefit of society as a whole… “Today for you, tomorrow for me!”
Mr Andrews (Teacher of History and Senior Tutor)
We have organised plenty of activities and guest speakers in these weeks, and we have been sending out a Black History Month bulletin with contributions from staff, pupils and alumni.
