Online courses, webinars and workshops that promote diversity and challenge eurocentrism
About Us
My name is Leila and I create online flexible courses and bespoke webinars and workshops that explore Black British History with the aim of promoting greater understanding and appreciation of different cultures. As a History Teacher of 14 years I have always been amazed at how little Black presence there is in the English curriculum and strongly feel that this is a key contributor to our unequal society.
