InspiralLondon’s Songlines for Greenwich creates a unique day of polyphonic shared exploration and walking for Black History 365 celebrations.
This walking event links up different parts of the Borough, to explore Black Lives – unique reclaimed stories and hidden histories – located in Greenwich’s diverse landscape. On these walks you will experience and celebrate unexplored Black History hidden in Greenwich’s historic building, its ghost traces, in writing and poetry, or found buried in the cityscape.
We welcome all to this day of interlinked walks that celebrate Black history and culture within Greenwich as we traverse the Borough from Motterham to Woolwich. We will stop on the way for performances, talks and celebratory retellings – with partners including Severndroog Castle, and Clockhouse Community Centre.
A Black History 365 celebration project funded by The Royal Borough of Greenwich, that seeks to uncover, then retell hidden, buried or untold stories from the Black British diaspora, through a festival of unique public walk events and performances.
