Really enjoyed speaking at a Lambeth Black History Month event this morning. Black History Month is so important so that we can all celebrate the contribution our black communities have made in Britain.
Brixton
The Streatham constituency contains the southern part of Brixton. It has a longstanding reputation as a vibrant cultural and creative hub, and has also seen significant transformation and investment. Windrush Square is named after the Windrush generation – who settled in Brixton after arriving in the UK as it had the labour exchange which was closest to the accommodation provided to migrants in Clapham – and is home of the Black Cultural Archives.
