Stockport Council is marking Black History Month (BHM) in October, which celebrates the contributions made by black people around the world. It was started by Carter G. Woodson in America in 1926.
BHM has grown into an international celebration which embraces all minority ethnic groups, educating people about the lives and achievements of Stockport’s diverse communities. Stockport joined in the national BHM celebrations in 1998 and BHM has grown into a vital part of the civic calendar.
Stockport Council run Libraries are marking BHM with displays of works by black heritage authors from the famous and familiar to less well known writers. So whether you are re-reading an old favourite or want to try something new, there is something for everyone.
