About the event
This illustrated talk will explore the connections the city of Bath (South West England ) has with African people. We start with Ethiopian Emperor Haille Selassie I, who lived in the city in the 1930s and left a lasting legacy both physical and cultural. We will also explore the African presence that preceded his arrival and go back to Georgian and Victorian times
