All Our Histories

All Our Histories is an innovative Exhibition in a Box exploring the Black history of Camberwell and Southwark, and the legacies of enslavement – through All the World is Now Richer, a powerful artwork by Sokari Douglas Camp and local research. It tells a story from Africa’s rich ancestral life through to the present day, and recognises the bravery, dignity and strength of the people who endured enslavement and fought for freedom.

Created for Key Stage 3, the resource helps young people explore complex histories in creative and meaningful ways. We’re hugely grateful to Sokari Douglas Camp for kindly allowing us to make her artwork the heart of this project. Discover how the past shapes our communities today.
