'Sharing The Past'
Book Launch |
Northamptonshire Black History Association is publishing an important and unique book this week. Sharing the Past: Northamptonshire Black History has been written by fifteen members and supporters of the Northamptonshire Black History Association. It presents an overview of the county's links to the wider world, and especially to Africa, the Caribbean and the Indian sub-continent.
Fully illustrated in colour, this 150-page book is the first publication telling a rich variety of local Black History stories and setting them in historical context. It is also the first local Black History book which links together evidence from the distant past with the more recent histories of local communities with African and Asian roots. |
