Description
The Ahmed Iqbal Ullah Race Relations Archive was founded specifically to combat racist ideas about black people and contains leaflets, books and videos, based on the lives and experiences of black people the world over. The Ahmed Iqbal Ullah Race Relations Archive contains material which documents the contribution of Black people to British, Eurpean and American development, Black history and anti - imperialist struggles. The archive intends to provide an alternative viewpoint to the misinformation carried in the mainstream. In this way, we can begin to combat the ideas behind racism that are prevalent today.
