DESCRIPTION:Join us for an online workshop exploring the materials and hi
 stories of Black activist publishing in the UK from the 1970s.\nOrganize
 d in collaboration with the George Padmore Institute and co-sponsored by
  the Institute of Race Relations\, this event will focus on the archival
  legacy and continued significance of the Black radical press — as made 
 up of grassroots newspapers\, political journals\, and other activist pr
 int publications — in 1970s Britain and what we can still learn from the
 se materials today.\n\nBringing together archivists and researchers with
  related experience in the archives\, the aim of this event is to share 
 how these materials highlight:\n\n- the breadth\, variety and creativity
  of Black community organizing and activism\, especially around often ov
 erlooked place-based projects and practices of everyday life\n- an analy
 sis of the time and the various issues and debates of the period from a 
 Black (and often international) perspective\n- the overlaps but also dis
 tinctiveness of these Black publications in comparison to other alternat
 ive and radical press materials from the time\n- the role of these often
  more ephemeral publications within and as part of the larger Black radi
 cal tradition\n- the continued significance and legacy of the 1970s Blac
 k radical press\, the necessity of its preservation and its potential fo
 r further activation and research\n\nThis event is organized as a collab
 oration between the George Padmore Institute and the @PeoplesPapers proj
 ect and is co-sponsored by the Institute of Race Relations.
