Black women are often overlooked in our society due to a lack of education about intersectionality. How do Black women navigate being British when visually they do not blend into society like their white counterparts and when they often face barriers that differ to other women of colour?

Together, we will explore stereotypes and hold them up against the truths of herstory, expressing our ideas through words and images.

All Black British women and allies are welcome to join, to express themselves and to learn in a trauma-free, creative environment.

This online workshop will open a conversation about ‘colourism’, ‘sexuality’ and ‘hair’ herstories, led by our Shero artist Rachelle Romeo.

Lon-Art presents this event is part of Black Sheroes Month. This aims to highlight the herstories of black women in Britain, their experiences, struggles and achievements through the arts.
