Black Heritage Voices is a conference dedicated to uniting professionals from Black communities working across the heritage sector, including archivists, researchers, audience engagement practitioners, community historians, heritage programmers and those in leadership roles.
This year’s theme is Mapping Creole Worlds, Diasporic Futures and the Stories Britain Forgot, which centres creole identities, hidden heritage and the afterlives of empire, the stories that shaped Britain yet remain marginal, obscured, or selectively omitted from the national record. By mapping creole worlds and the complex cultural exchanges that define African and Caribbean Diasporic experience, the conference interrogates how contemporary Britain continues to negotiate visibility, belonging and power.
