Therefore, this information focused on "BRITAIN: Afrikans Continue to Add Civilised Values to UK Life Styles/GRANDE-BRETAGNE : Afrikans continuer à ajouter des valeurs civilisées de Styles de vie UK". 

Africans will have to bring reputation to the continent of Africa and keep considering the best historical events left behind by the Colonizers of African Countries.

BRITAIN  is at the tail end of the month of October, when Black History is celebrated in the United Kingdom (UK) since 1987. Today, there is a trend in the Afrikan Community to refer to the period as ‘Afrikan History Month’, in celebrating Afrikan contributions to Britain’s contemporary  history

Black History Month's purpose is nicely encapsulated in these words spoken by the former London Mayor Ken Livingstone: "In order to enrich the cultural diversity of the Greater London area, it is imperative that Londoners know more about African influences on medieval and renaissance European music so that accepted ideas about European music is changed. Despite the significant role that Africa and its Diaspora have played in the world civilization since the beginning of time, Africa's contribution has been omitted or distorted in most history books.”

“Akyaaba Addai Sebbo is widely regarded as the person who set up Black History Month in the UK. Addai worked with Ken Livingstone at the Greater London Council (GLC) as co-ordinator of Special Projects. The first event was held on 1st October 1987, when the GLC hosted Dr Maulana Karenga from the US to mark the contributions of Black people throughout history. Addai then drew up a plan to recognise the contributions of African, Asian and Caribbean people to the economic, cultural and political life in London and the UK. Since 1987 as part of African Jubilee Year, other boroughs began to formally institute this as Black History Month in the UK.” Derbyshire Community Health Services (National Health Services Foundation Trust)
