What's this? What's this?! A new page on the #Bywgraffiadur website presenting our growing list of names and some info on the #Diversity project?
If you fancy writing a short biographical article about any of the people included in the list, or would like to suggest new additions, please get in touch!
We're collecting names of historical Black, Asian and Minority-Ethnic individuals and groups of all sorts who have a significant link with #Wales for potential future inclusion in the Dictionary of Welsh Biography as part of our Anti-Racist Wales Action Plan project.
I'm currently compiling a list of suitable candidates, one of which are the many Italian Welsh families who have left a massive culinary imprint on Welsh cuisine and coffee culture.
If you have a name you'd like added -- or want to write about yourself, please get in touch!
If your interest is piqued, here's the #OpenAccess link to Robert Burrough's book "Black students in Imperial Britain: the African Institute, Colwyn Bay, 1889-1911" (2022) which details the lives and experiences of the Black students enrolled at Congo House/African Institute.
