1Xtra is looking to build an archive of personal stories about important black history events in the UK.
Your story might be about your family coming to the UK, or memories of the early Notting Hill Carnivals. Were you there when Arthur Ashe won the men's singles championship at Wimbledon? Or maybe you witnessed the New Cross Fire in 1981?
Whatever your black history story, we want to hear from you. Send us...
- Name
- Email address
- Contact Number
- Story Title
- Your story (max 500 words)
- Picture(s) or video footage (if possible) with captions (remember to include names, dates and places)
- Then email us at 1xtra.online@bbc.co.uk with your story.
Our news department, TXU, may be interested in contacting you about your story. Please state in your email if you DO NOT wish them to contact you.
