Faces in the Crowd

Faces in the Crowd highlights the African and Caribbean diasporas that have settled in different parts of the world and have achieved, or are achieving great things. This month is a celebration of the many ways black individuals and communities have contributed to the world, some of which often go overlooked.

This series of events will highlight the work and achievements of black people from different walks of life including sports, music, fashion, politics, education, entrepreneurship, social activists, student politics and many more.
