With Carnival weekend coming up, let's explore the history of Carnival...

🎉 By the 1950s, Brixton and Notting Hill had the largest population of Caribbean people in Britain.

🎉 Trinidadian-born activist Claudia Jones and founder of the West Indian Gazette newspaper organised a Caribbean Carnival in St. Pancras Town Hall on 30th January 1959.

🎉 In 1966, Rhaune Laslett and Andre Shervington organised a street festival with the aim of entertaining local children as well as attempting to ease ongoing tensions.

🎉 By 1974, 100,000 people and a dozen bands participated and in 1975 static sound systems were introduced adding Jamaican reggae, dub and ska music to the traditional calypso and soca.

The history of Notting Hill Carnival represents the resilience and cultural diversity of the communities of London, and the rich Caribbean cultures brought to life through food, music, costumes and dance.

When we launched as a charity in 2022, we also launched two vital reports into the systemic racism Black people face in the UK. The research shows the impact of systemic racism at the heart of UK society, within institutions, structures and policies. There is a stark lack of representation of Black people in senior positions in education, healthcare, and in the media.

Today marks Emancipation Day, and the anniversary of the Slavery Abolition Act 1833. Emancipation Day is observed in many former European colonies in the Caribbean and United States to commemorate the emancipation of slaves of African descent.

On August 1, 1985, Trinidad and Tobago became the first independent country to declare Emancipation Day as a public holiday to commemorate the abolition of slavery.

The Slavery Abolition Act only freed slaves below the age of 6 - full emancipation was finally achieved at midnight on 31 July 1838.

Let's take a moment to acknowledge the strife and struggle of our ancestors, and celebrate the freedoms they achieved for us.
