Legacy

In this publication we bring together photographs of black and Asian people in East London from the 1920s to the present day. This does not seek to be a comprehensive pictorial history of these communities; it is very much a “snap shot” history, confined as it is to material Eastside has collected or originated and for which we hold the copyright.
