How will these resources help you?

Many history teachers are keen to update our curricula to include Black histories. Individual schools and departments have done much work on this, but many have had to start from scratch. Despite the massive increase in attention that Black history is beginning to receive, resources are disparate and it can be difficult to piece together a cohesive topic. A further issue is the presence of controversial language contained in some of the crucial original sources about the Black Tudors. The resources given here look at the roles played in society by Black Tudors, thereby challenging assumptions about the nature of Tudor society and re-illustrating the picture we hold of the Tudor age.
