Society for Black British Historians

With Holly CooperTionne Parris

A Society of Black British historians, run for and by us, is a learned society for scholars of Black British and/or Black diasporic heritage, with the aim of improving retention and admission of students from these marginalised backgrounds. Adopting a similar framework to the organisation, Museum Detox, the Society will provide an autonomous space for intellectual nourishment, networking, peer to peer support and institutional crisis management for Black historians in, and of, Britain.
