The trial of the Mangrove Nine in 1970 represents a high point of the Black Panther movement in the UK and stands as a watershed moment for black activism in the struggle against institutionalised police prejudice. But what prompted the backlash of black British people against law enforcement? This talk will explore and contextualise the mounting racial tensions that sparked one of the most important show trials of the 20th century.
Monday 25 to Sunday 31 January is Diversity Week at The National Archives, which highlights the ongoing work across the organisation surrounding the representation of diverse histories.
We run an exciting range of events and exhibitions on a wide variety of topics. For more details, visit nationalarchives.gov.uk/whatson.
