These digital resources for the classroom explore the power of personal testimonies alongside collection content as they articulate the experiences of the Windrush Generation. Through short-form activity videos and supplementary learning resources, the materials enable students to engage critically with the British Library’s collections and encounter personal accounts of Caribbean settlement in Britain. 

The session is built on the Library’s sound archives and a wide range of source material, including oral history sources, supporting critical enquiry and encouraging independent thinking.
