OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
22 June 2018 will be the 70th anniversary of the arrival at Tilbury Docks of the Empire Windrush, carrying the first substantial group of post-Second World War migrants to Britain from the Caribbean. To commemorate this important moment in British history, and reflect upon its historical and contemporary significance, Merton College and the History Faculty are jointly sponsoring this public lecture by the distinguished historian, Hakim Adi, who is Professor of the History of Africa and the African Diaspora at Chichester University.
All are welcome to attend; the lecture will be followed by a wine reception.
