We are incredibly proud that JW3 is built on the core values of inclusivity and loving-kindness.
As part of our commitment to these values, we will be celebrating Black history month this year with a series of workshops exploring the history of Black people in the UK, hearing the story of Black Jews in the UK, and focusing on how to combat racism in our spaces and communities.
Black History Month was launched in London in the 1980s, aiming to encourage local communities to challenge racism and educate themselves and others about Black history that wasn't taught in schools. In 2020, the need to challenge racism in all its forms remains pressing - we hope you will join us on our journey of communal education.
This workshop will provide an initial exploration into UK Black History and will be presented by The Black Curriculum. The Black Curriculum is a social enterprise founded in 2019 by young people to address the lack of Black British history in the UK Curriculum. They believe that by delivering arts-focused Black history programmes, providing teacher training and campaigning through mobilising young people, they can facilitate social change.
