Oxford University began awarding degrees to women in 1920 and it was from the 1930s that Black female students began arriving at Oxford. Focusing on Kofoworola Ademola (née Moore), Merze Tate, Florence Mahoney, and Karen Stevenson, among others, the exhibition uses photographs, writings, and biographies in an effort to understand their remarkable journeys, unique struggles, and experiences at Oxford.

This Exhibition is part of Black History Month and is curated by Urvi Khaitan and introduced by Kellogg Fellow, Dr Shreya Atrey.

The Black History Month exhibition will be in The Hub and anyone can enter the building which includes a café.
