Description:	The Black Presence website was formerly the Black Presence in Britain, a history site about the contribution of African descended people in British history. The Black Presence in Britain website was set up in 1998 due to a lack of information about Black people in Britain to be found on the Internet. I was studying politics at the time, the course included a history module called ” The black Presence in Britain 1550-present day”. Whilst doing my research I found a serious lack of Black British info online. So I decided to build my own site where this information could be documented. The site has had many incarnations since then. Today the site aims to represent and give voice to all those of African descent, those with African Ancestry and to families with dual heritage members. I particularly want to encourage people who have something to say to blog it here. Let Black Presence become a portal for black documentaion and culture. Of course the site isn’t restricted or off limits to anyone. We welcome anyone with a willingness to share in and promote understanding of African peoples and cultures in the wider world. The site has lots of information and articles to get people started in their understanding of the history and culture of Black/African people over the centuries. Welcome to the site if you are new here and Thank you for reading and supporting this site if you are an old timer.
