Putting the Black Back Into the Union Jack

Detail from early 16th Century RoodScreen Panel

I am today - 8th Nov 2014 - speaking at the UCL History department's event - Putting the Black Back Into the Union Jack, part of the session Africans in Tudor Times .

I'll be sharing the stage with Dr Miranda Kaufmann and Philip Udeh from NarrativeEye.

I'll be speaking about what the image is, how it reached rural 16th century Devon, what it meant at the time and possibly what it means today.
