More Curricular is pleased to be involved in the Open House London Festival, again this year.

The History of Britain's Black Tudors
The Black Tudors are an interesting and often overlooked part of British history. Black Tudors were people of African descent, who lived in England during the Tudor period. They were not numerous, but they did play an important role in English society. Many were sailors, merchants, servants or musicians, but there were also some black nobility, such as Dederi Jaquoah.
