Cokethorpe Spark Lectures: African Leadership
Channel: Cokethorpe School
Date: 2016-03-29

On Thursday 17 March 2016, Dr R Power gave a Spark Lecture to an audience of Cokethorpe pupils and staff in the CranhamLibrary. The talk was titled ‘Leadership in Africa – The Distorted Pages of History’, which shed light on the role of Africa and the African diaspora in shaping the human story. The talk took a closer look at some of the topics studied by pupils as part of their History studies and explained that, in many cases, the role of Africa and African people has often been forgotten.
