The fight goes on. If Black British children are not being taught their history does this contravene their human rights? @CurriculumBlack @EHRC #TBH365

Despite a disappointing response from the govt, we will continue to push for the mandatory inclusion of black histories in schools.

Thank you for all your support so far!

Here is our statement on the govt's response & 3 ways you can continue to support us #TBH365
