  • Be More Empowered Portraits
    University of Bristol: past and present portraits The Wills Memorial Building 24 Be More Empowered portraits Portraits in the The Reception Room In 2019, we launched the Be More Empowered for Success programme to support our Black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) students to thrive at Bristol and beyond. To celebrate the first anniversary of this programme, we honour our staff and students of colour who have changed our institution, our city and the world. These portraits commemorate staff, students and alumni who have led the way in education, the arts, economics, politics, activism and social change. From Lord Boateng, one of the first three Black British MPs, to Hannah Dualeh, whose work as a sabbatical officer led to the creation of the Be More Empowered programme itself, each of the portraits represents a member of the University who has brought about significant change in Bristol and across the world. They are accompanied by current and recent staff, students and alumni whose research, learning or work connects them to these figures, and who are themselves change makers, leaders and influencers. At a time when we are reflecting on our institutional history, making a clear commitment to address racism at every level, and striving to ensure that our staff and students of colour have every opportunity to succeed, we are proud to see these influential members of our community take their rightful place on the walls of the Reception Room. 25 Okot p’Bitek 26 1931-1982 Renowned 20th-century poet with Antonette Clarke-Akalanne, Archaeology and Anthropology (BA, 2018) and Masters student “Okot p’Bitek was born in Gulu, Nothern “P’Bitek took a Diploma in Education at Uganda, which at the time was a protectorate Bristol, and later he studied law at the of the British Empire.
