Reading about the movement
One of the key precepts of the BLM movement is educating oneself. Regardless of race, age, or gender, it calls for people to learn more about both Black history and how racism currently manifests within society. Systemic racism is endemic in the UK as it is in America, hence more and more people in the UK recognising the need to learn more about Black history .

Black History Month is an important time to not only celebrate the historic contributions made by African-Americans, but to amplify the voices and perspectives of Black leaders, business owners and designers.
For Colorado-based artist Jalen, it s also an opportunity to share his work with a much wider audience. Inspired by Solange Knowles song Don t Touch My Hair, the 17-year-old created one of four exclusive PopSocketsâa.k.a., expandable phone gripsâthat are available now at Best Buy for $14.99, in honor of Black History Month.
