This foyer display shares the findings of Vera Douie Research Fellow Gemma Romain, who uncovered sources in the Library’s collections relating to interwar black history. The display explores the ways in which black individuals and histories either appear in or are absent from the records of various women’s rights organisations and individual campaigners.
It presents and interrogates documents relating to or referencing Indian and African anti-colonial activism; empire, gender and race; racism against black dockworkers; and the nature of everyday and political interactions between black and white individuals.
