We are so pleased to hear from longstanding researcher and recent MRes graduate @cliffjpereira on his experience of the course. Cliff has over 15 years of experience in exploring the historical presence of Africans in Asia. For him, "the time seemed right to do this MRes"

Our YHP virtual Christmas social event was hosted by @KaitleneK. We played a fun quiz about Black British History, and then we shared our drawings of Kaitlene as Santa! We believe our artistic skills are wasted as historians… what do you think?👇🏿😂 Merry Christmas from YHP! 🎄🎅🏿
