It also provides examples of sporting heritage programmes currently offered to support the curriculum in museum and sport settings across the country The physicality and accessibility of sport cuts through barriers of language, religion, class and culture. There is growing evidence that sporting heritage, taught as part of the school curriculum, is a very effective medium for motivating under-achieving pupils. Whilst the main academic focus of sporting heritage is history – most pertinently local history – it can also provide an effective springboard to cross-curricular learning and to sports participation. Many of our sports clubs were founded in the 19th century and, from Premier League football clubs to village cricket and rugby clubs, are often the best examples of living history in their communities, regularly attracting more people onto their premises and more interest in their fortunes than any other local organisations of comparable age.

  • Using Historical Sources to Investigate Black History What Evidence Do Historians Use? Historians Try to Find out What Happened in the Past
    Using historical sources to investigate Black history What evidence do historians use? Historians try to find out what happened in the past. To do this they need to piece together what happened from the clues that survive. Historians call these clues sources. Historical sources are something that tells us about history. It may be a document, a picture, a sound recording, a book, a cinema film, a television programme, or an object. Anything from the period in question that conveys information can qualify as a source. You are going to look at two sources from the National Archives that help you answer the enquiry questions below. Enquiry questions: Who was Walter Tull? How can we use sources to find out about him? What can he teach us about what happened in the past? Walter Tull was born on 28 April 1888 in Folkstone, Kent. His father was from Barbados and his mother from Kent. His parents died when he was aged 9 years old. Walter and his brother were brought up in an orphanage in Bethnal Green, East London. From 1908 he started to play football and was signed by Clapham FC, then the following year by Tottenham Hotspur F.C. He was the second person of African-Caribbean mixed heritage to play in the top division of the Football League. He later moved to Northampton Town F.C. in 1911 where he played half-back. At the start of the First World War Tull joined the 17th (1st Football) Battalion of the Middlesex Regiment as a Lance-Corporal. In 1915 he served in France and was later placed in hospital for shell shock.

    TH th “WALTER TULL (28 ​ April 1888 - 25 ​ March 1918). ​ ​ BREAKING DOWN WALLS” A Short Play By Year 5 – St. Michael’s C.E. Junior School, Maidstone & Diversity House 4 June 2018 ©Diversity House 2018 Acknowledgement Diversity House use this opportunity to thank the teachers and pupils of St. Michael’s C.E. Junior School, Maidstone for their willingness and enthusiasm to embark on a historical journey, exploring the involvement and contributions of Africans in the Great War. Using Walter Tull (an Afro-Caribbean and Black British Officer) as a ​ symbol of all Black people, particularly those of African descent to try to break down the walls of the gnawing persistence of prejudice in our society that makes history and the narratives of World War One a Eurocentric rather than an inclusive one. Using this play as a vehicle to remember the “unremembered” and thereby build bridges for a cohesive Britain during and after the Centenary of WWI. We thank the teachers and pupils for taking ownership of the play, adapting and interpreting the script to suit the age and abilities of the actors. It is not, we hope, invidious to single out Lauren Mercer and all Year 5 teachers/staff for their 2 tireless work and practical assistance, ensuring that the pupils got their lines, and gained skills in stage management and props making. 3 Memoire – Walter Tull Walter Tull Walter & Edward Walter Tull was born at 16 Allendale Street in Folkestone on 28th April 1888. His grandfather was a slave in Barbados. His father, came to Britain in 1876 and married a girl in Folkestone and they had six children.

That war eventually claimed the lives of around 145,000 of them. Scotland's losses were, per capita, among the highest of any combatant nation, and the war's effects on the nation were profound and long-lasting. When war was declared on 4th August 1914, there was an immediate call for people to enlist in the armed forced and join the war effort. Glasgow’s men and women, just like many from the They came from every walk of big cities in Britain, responded with life – the shipyards, the factories, patriotic enthusiasm. the professional classes and of course from those who played and spectated in sports.

    KNOW YOUR HISTORY STORIES FROM FOOTBALL’S PAST As it’s the th anniversary of the First World War ending, we discover the fascinating and sad story of the midfielder who went off to battle and never came home 1. THE ORPHAN PLAYE R Walter Tull was a football star and a wartime hero, but until recently his name had been largely forgotten. Walter was one of British football’s first black players, and one of the British Army’s first black officers. He overcame discrimination and adversity to become a true pioneer who every football fan should know about. Walter was born in Kent in into a mixed-race family. His dad was from Barbados. Tragically, both of his parents died when he was young, and Walter was raised in an orphanage. He played for the orphanage team and later starred for Clapton FC, an amateur side whose stadium was called the Old Spotted Dog! 2.

  • Walter Tull: His Life and Legacy 28Th September 2018 – 31St January 2019
    Walter Tull: His Life and Legacy 28th September 2018 – 31st January 2019 Folkestone Museum is delighted to present an exhibition celebrating the life and legacy of Walter Tull. Born in Folkestone in 1888 to a British mother and Bajan father, Walter was one of the first black outfield footballers to play at the highest level, for Tottenham Hotspur, Northampton Town and Clapton. He also signed for Rangers of Glasgow in February, 1917 intending to play for them after the war. In December 1914 Walter readily enlisted with the 17th (Service) Battalion, Middlesex Regiment, otherwise known as the Footballer’s Battalion. Defying the military regulation that restricted the rank of officer to those of ‘pure European descent’, he became the first black officer to lead white men in battle. Tragically, like so many, Walter was killed in action on 25th March 1918, a month before his 30th birthday. To coincide with Armistice centenary commemorations in November and Black History Month in October 2018, 100 years after Walter’s death, Folkestone Museum will bring Walter’s story to a new generation. Owing to the generous loan of objects, letters, diaries and photographs, this will be the first extensive exhibition about Walter Tull. His early formative years in Folkestone, his character forming decade at The Children’s Home and Orphanage in Bethnal Green, his footballing and military careers and his enduring legacy will all be explored. The exhibition will also investigate what it meant to be part of a mixed-heritage family in 19th century Britain, over 70 years before the Empire Windrush brought larger numbers of Caribbean British Citizen migrants to the UK.

  • “THEY ALSO SERVED” Remembering the Contributions Made by African and Caribbean Service Personnel World War I (1914-1918)
    “THEY ALSO SERVED” Remembering the contributions made by African and Caribbean Service Personnel World War I (1914-1918) Lecture by Canon Linda Ali© at Christ Church Cathedral Oxford 16.11.18 Until recently the contribution made by Africans and Caribbean service personnel during the First World War has largely been untold. In popular language, it has been airbrushed from the historical landscape. I believe the Centenary Commemoration of the Armistice 2018 has provided an opportunity to address this omission. The Research Project The project was commissioned by Churches Together in England in 2014 in order to make up for decades of historical neglect. The Heritage Lottery Fund contributed £62,000 for which we are grateful. The aim of the project is primarily to educate and inform current and future generations about this missing strand in WWI history, a subject widely taught in schools across Britain. More importantly, I hope to engender a sense of pride among young black children about the contributions made by their ancestors. The project produced a travelling exhibition which is available on loan to schools, universities, churches and community groups. My role was as a member of the Steering Group. The aim of this paper is to offer an opportunity to learn more and to recognise the part played by African and Caribbean servicemen. It is partly based on the exhibition titled ‘They Also Served’ as well as additional research I carried out separately. It will explore the recruitment process, the experiences and general involvement of people of colour. What the paper is not about It would be impossible to detail within this short paper the contributions made to the war effort by all people of colour.
