Azzizi, you might be interested to know that there's a school of though which holds that Othello the Moor is a corruption of Moorean. The Venetian captain he probably based him on was from Moorea in Greece.
A lot of black Britons went to Sierra Leone in the 19th century. The USA established Liberia after being impressed with the colony.

Oops forgot to add that I know someone that I think had recently done a pamphlet for the council about black heritage in the East End.
