Quotes:
Jak Beula CEO Nubian Jak Community Trust said: “The
African and Caribbean servicemen and women who fought alongside the
British Commonwealth during both World Wars, will be pleased that they
too will be remembered this Remembrance Sunday.
We will celebrate their heroism once more, and shed light on the
contribution they made, and the part they played in the freedom we know
today”
Sadiq Khan – Mayor of London said: "Britain
owes an enormous debt to the African and Caribbean service men and
women who fought alongside their British- based peers during the First
and Second World Wars. These brave individuals, who came from what was
formerly the British Empire, sacrificed an enormous amount to defend the
freedoms that we now enjoy.”
‘REMEMBERED: In Memoriam’ Book Launch: This
publication is a collection of essays, articles and narratives compiled
and edited by Jak Beula and Nairobi Thompson. It is the most
