| Introduction | The Race Equality Centre (TREC) together with partners are seeking to develop a space that will be a focal point for on-going education and research and enhanced awareness to challenge preconceptions, and so to begin dialogue within the public, private and voluntary sectors and the communities they serve (locally, nationally and internationally). There is a recognition that some of this story had been and is being told through a variety of mediums, to include the highly regarded ‘black heroes in the hall of fame’. Support from Highfields Community Association The Race Equality Centre is developing a project to improve understanding of the contribution made by racial minority communities to the world and how this has influenced contemporary Britain. This innovative endeavour seeks to celebrate contributions and influence within all spheres through exploring and preserving the heritage behind the production of the Black Heroes in the Hall of Fame musical, which was originally staged in London in 1987 and in particular, it will enable volunteers to research how the show came to be written and produced and to explore its lasting legacy. |
