Black History resources
Welcome to this page we have created to compile together all of the different resources we have discovered and curated over the past few years. For local and up to date events for Norfolk Black History month why not look here. For links to our pages on decolonisation see here . Otherwise scroll on and enjoy!
Books
This is an inexhaustive list of some of the things we have bought in the last few years. It in no way represents the whole collection but might be a good starting point. If you want to recommend a resource or get advice on where to begin when you are researching get in touch with us at library@norwichuni.ac.uk :
Watchlists
Why have just one? We have made an ever growing one on Box of Broadcasts but they also have their own curated collections too which we have linked to to give different views. See also the BFI Player ones which you can access as part of being a student here. If you haven’t logged on before follow this link to join. This will have to be completed each academic year.
