Title	Reclaiming a Lost Past: Black British Women, Visibility and the BBC
Creators	Lodhi, A.
Description	In looking back at the BBC’s centenary, this project has concentrated on the often overlooked histories of Black British women. Through two key strands – one on Black British actresses and the other on Black British feminists – Reclaiming a Lost Past has searched through the BBC archives for important figures and significant programmes to reveal how Black British actresses and women’s right activists faced a struggle for representation on the BBC.
