Oxford Events, the new replacement for OxTalks, will launch on 16th March. From now until the launch of Oxford Events, new events cannot be published or edited on OxTalks while all existing records are migrated to the new platform. The existing OxTalks site will remain available to view during this period.
From 16th, Oxford Events will launch on a new website: events.ox.ac.uk, and event submissions will resume. You will need a Halo login to submit events. Full details are available on the Staff Gateway.
Description
Professor Daley (University of Oxford) will explore how Caribbean migrants of the Windrush generations constructed “home” on the island of Britain – in a country that they thought they had prior knowledge and some familiarity. Making “home” will be considered in the decoration of the living spaces, through the sociality of family, friends, and the wider black community, as well as attachment to the towns and cities in which people settled.
Professor Daley is Professor of the Human Geography of Africa at the University of Oxford.
Doors open at 1.30pm for refreshments.
Part of our Windrush Years programme accompanying the Windrush Years – Next Generations exhibition.
