African Women Resistance Leaders
A free sample of our twelve week course on African/Caribbean women who fought back against racism/colonialism from 2000 years ago to now.
Mainstream history consistently ignores the contribution of Black women and this taster session will show numerous incredible true stories of resistance and triumph plus references. We will use obscure and modern film clips, archival documents, rare books and interviews /testimony from the women.
