“Black History Month is an opportunity to celebrate the contribution of Black communities to our culture, our society and our politics. But it should be about more than looking to the past; it’s about struggling for a better future too.”

“Because we must also remember that history is a living thing. Just as we must recall the injustices of the past and those who have fought against them, we should also stand with those who continue to struggle today.”

– Olivia Blake MP
