They Came Before Us: History of Women of Colour in the UK
Editor, interviewer.
In this short video Dowa and Sarah discuss their project and exhibition; They Came Before Us, which offers a response to how Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (BAME) women of today interpret and react to certain stories in history that have somewhat been forgotten and also shine a light on the lack of inclusion of BAME British women in mainstream history.
The project has brought together over 50 BAME women creatives over a period of 11 months to develop and create an exhibition, using 5 creative disciplines: Spoken Word, Photography, Set Design, Film and Visual Arts. They have put together an exhibition that will allow the public to see through their eyes some of the hidden histories of 5 BAME British women and the vital role they played in the history of the UK.
