For Black History Month the Ahmed Iqbal Ullah RACE Centre and Education Trust have launched a call-to-action, asking Black* people in Manchester to tell them how they want to see their histories 
recorded, explored, shared and celebrated. They will build a Manifesto out of these responses and share this widely, with the hope that it will be used by Manchester’s heritage and cultural sector, educators, statutory and voluntary organisations and individuals as well as informing their work on Black histories.
If you are of African or Caribbean heritage you can contribute to the Manifesto by sharing your views and experiences of Black History Month, and how you feel your histories should be commemorated and celebrated. You can do this through a short survey here
The survey is open for responses throughout October, and the Manifesto will then be created which will be shared at a public event in December.
*Although historically Black was used to include all people of colour/people who might experience racism, now it is generally used to refer to people of African and Caribbean heritage, and they are using it in that way here.
If you are not of African/Caribbean heritage, you can still share this campaign widely with your contacts.
