BLACK history month is being celebrated in Swindon with a dedicated display of books in the town's Central Library, which is in Regent Circus. The books, which celebrate black history and black writers, will be available to lenders.

This will be in addition to an exhibition of black achievers in history that is going on tour around Swindon schools this month.

An evening of celebration is also being organised for the end of the month, when young people from the Caribbean Saturday Club will perform a short piece which they have been working on in conjunction with Swindon Dance.
