Black History Month

October is a month in which we celebrate inspirational individuals, events and history of people within the black and ethnic community.

The UK has celebrated Black History Month every October since 1987

It is an annual event that also celebrates the contribution made by the generations of those of African and Caribbean descent living in the UK who have shaped Britain’s national and cultural life.

By celebrating Black History Month, here at Carlisle College, we can celebrate the achievements of Black people and challenge continued racism and negative stereotypes.
