Alongside the Civil Rights movement in the USA, our Black British collection includes landmark moments in race relations in the UK, including the Toxteth Riots, the Brixton Riots, the New Cross Massacre and the 1981 Black People’s Day of Action march. This collection includes influential films by Menelik Shabazz, whose complex and sensitive polyphonic works rage against mainstream media’s myths about Black communities in London.
