Thank you for curating this!

I hope to one day be on this list! I currently write about music history and its impact on our current music landscape and our own lives. I've got lots of reading to do!

Last year, there was an exhibition in London documenting the 500-year musical journey of African and Caribbean people in Britain. It was curated by Dr. Aleema Gray and Mykaell Riley.

I can’t see the exhibition on the museum website but it’s available on the websites below.
