Stories of Black Leadership
This acclaimed three-part series explores the evolution of Black female leadership from historical perspectives to contemporary dynamics, and highlights diverse leadership styles. All three parts are thoughtfully showcased together, allowing us to witness the excellence among Britain’s Black women.
🔸 'Radiating Greatness': Artist Franklyn Rodgers shares the stories of Baroness Valerie Amos, Karen Blackett OBE, Dame Vivian Hunt DBE, Sandie Okoro OBE, and Dr Samantha Tross.
🔸 'Breaking Barriers': A portrait commission by photographer Joy Gregory highlights the journeys of Maggie Aderin-Pocock MBE, Dame Linda Dobbs DBE, Baroness Doreen Lawrence OBE, and Shirley Thompson OBE.
🔸 'Inspiring Legacies': Photographer Misan Harriman concludes the series, spotlighting Dame Elizabeth Anionwu DBE FRCN, Bishop Rose Hudson-Wilkin MBE, Claire Ighodaro CBE, Dame Donna Kinnair DBE, and Jacky Wright.
Honouring legacies allows us to consider the paths that paved the way to our present-day successes, whilst inspiring future generations on the possibilities for future leadership.
Visit Black Cultural Archives to experience 'Stories of Black Leadership' until 31 March 2024. 'Stories of Black Leadership' was originally sponsored by J.P. Morgan.
