11 Black Football History Makers

Collection:

BLM

The National Football Museum's 'First 11' series brings era-defining football stories together in one place. This episode looks at 11 stories of pioneering Black footballers in English football, many with links to our local teams here in Manchester. It spotlights museum objects that you can see on a visit, related to trailblazers including Arthur Wharton, Walter Tull, Viv Anderson, Eni Aluko, Raheem Sterling and more.

This punchy and informative film is a great starting point for exploring different inspiring stories and people in your lessons and can be used to inspire the creation of art, poetry and creative writing.
