There was a great turnout at the Bristol English Teacher Network event last night at @BristolUni School of Education! The slides and resources have been added to our Google Drive. Questions welcome!
Thanks to Jo Jefferson, Ellie-May Campbell and the English department at @stkathsschool for having us at the launch for Year 9 who are studying 'Princess & The Hustler' by @Chino100percent this term. What a great, communal way to introduce a new text! 🤩
We can't see the MA cut out! With Black British lit now featuring at GCSE, it offers students a chance to engage with narratives that have been historically silenced and omitted. This generation of students are future rounds of applicants to such a rich course. Sign the petition!

The launch event was beautiful! We honoured Bristol's Black community elders, premiered our promotional video, were immersed in a poetry performance by @MuniPilgrim and had a yummy Caribbean buffet prepared by Dionne/The Jamaican Hideaway. Here's what some of our guests said!
Tickets are fast selling for the launch event! Want more of an idea of what we've been up to? Here's a snippet from our promotional video: youtube.com/watch?v=wacpox…
