03 Oct Black History Month – Race relations in Southwark from 1930

Southwark is one of London’s most diverse boroughs. This Black History Month, Southwark Council’s Heritage Service presents Race Equality in Southwark. It is a new cross-venue exhibition spanning 400 years, we take a look at the people and organisations who helped to shape Southwark’s anti-racism policies, and foster its cultural diversity for the future. The exhibition has been curated by Lisa Soverall, Jeevan Sanghera and Jess Brown. The history from the 1930s can be seen at the John Harvard Library. Earlier history is at Walworth Library.

The John Harvard Library is at 211 Borough High Street SE1 1JA.
