For this edition of 2021 Black History Months ‘Proud to be’ theme we have developed a resource based around Marcus Garvey, the father of Pan-Africanism. It is based around his 1921 speech “If You Believe the Negro Has a Soul”. Please read the speech before deploying the resource to your learners to assess suitability. There may be some archaic terms that some may find offensive / inappropriate. This was designed with GCSE students in mind, but may be suitable for KS3 Students. Please comment, rate and subscribe if you found this useful as it really helps our resources reach more people (and makes us feel great too!) We will be uploading resources throughout month so please subscribe and check back regularly. Thanks in advance and happy black history month!

We’ll be releasing Black History Month resources throughout the month and we celebrate it all year round! Thanks in advance

Each year Black History Month has a theme, and inspired by the 2020 Black Lives Matter events, the theme for 2021 is ‘Proud to Be’. It invited black and brown people of all ages throughout the UK to share what they are proud of. What follows is the ‘Say it loud I’m black and Proud Documentary’, first aired in 1969 by Thames Television. It features interviews from Muhammad Ali, the reverend Jesse Jackson and others from African-American civil rights movement. I have written some discussion points, questions and extended activities in the PDF document for your students. Can be used as a standalone whole lesson, or part of a PSHE course on diversity. Developed for KS4/GCSE, but may be suitable for some KS3 Students. I would advise parents/teachers to watch the video beforehand to assess its suitability for your children/learners as some views expressed could be considered controversial.
