Petition Action

LEARN ABOUT BLACK HISTORY IN UK SCHOOLS.

Petition Details

Change the history curriculum in the UK to include Britain’s colonialism, slavery and treatment of black people and other people of colour.

Additional Information

With the black lives matter movement, it had come to my attention that many people are learning more about black and racist history through social media. This is not good enough. We need to educate our children on our past so we can improve our future and become closer to an anti-racist society. We need to change the way we show people our history.
