Hey you! Yes you. Bored. Walk this walk.
Raining? Stay where you are and still do it.
(Walking around your living room accepted)

There is lots of good Black British history being taught in schools now. And we hope we're part of enabling it to grow even more. Universities will have lots of students hungry for this now and more in the next few years.
Please sign this.

Amazing stuff from @GodstimeDavid13 and @teadyjazz here! The Walk is great and the app is available anywhere to be used!
I discovered Sunderland Black History Walk on the Echoes app: https://t.co/ZTK77pl6H8
Such an important story in Sunderland - and features two tales that havenโt been told for hundreds of years
Delighted to have spent the morning with Godstime, Endurance & @sunderlanduni learning all about our cityโs black history

Great work by @alegnasmith and @lisajaneashes developing this and produced so well by the students of Sunderland University.
It's not often that the words 'Terry' and 'very thoughtfully done' are used in the same sentence!
Thanks so much and it was great to meet you and so many others doing such exciting work!
1. British Black history through a NE lens, materials for teachers by @ProjectNS46 trustee @ShabanaMarshall

I can deliver my the Story of the Windrush children's 'meet the author' collage session to libraries, museums and other venues all year round. Get in touch to book a workshop!
Students can see that #BlackHistory for many reasons can be hard to find in distorted archives.
Inspired by the trailblazing work of @TiyaMilesTAM , Marissa Fuentez and Saidya Hartman, we want students to see they can illuminate any history they want.

Watch this space for new pages on Equiano. His visit to Newcastle and what he tells us about enslavement and the navy.
PNS is a week old. Thanks for all the positive feedback so far. ๐๐
We made this from the northeast but not just for the northeast.
We're sure there's lots here to help in your curriculum or spark thoughts
