Friends,
Tomorrow night, as part of
the TSSA Learning Festival in Hackney, there is an event about Mary Seacole,
her life and her relevance today. The
meeting is bound to have a celebratory feel after the government dropped plans
to remove Mary Seacole and Olaudah
Equiano from the schools curriculum.
We are proud that we have some of the leading campaigners
that helped win a victory on this issue contributing to the panel discussion.
Come along and celebrate the victory – but also take part in an important discussion
about education, black history and the national curriculum.
