The module will introduce students to the main themes and debates regarding the history of Black settlement in the UK following the Second World War, with, when applicable, a particular focus on the North and North West. Lectures will provide an overview of key political, cultural and social developments from 1945-1999, covering topics such as migration, housing, the introduction of anti-racist discrimination legislation, the British Black Panthers, and the development of Caribbean Carnivals across Britain. Seminars will focus more closely on different source material, and engage with historiographical debates.
