Young People's Digital Diversity Exchange

This project is a celebration of culture and heritage curated through the lens of young people, particularly people from the ethnic minority, as a tool to promote diversity and community cohesion.The project was led by young people, who came from a diverse range of backgrounds to learn and explore their cultural similarities and differences, with the aim of understanding and educating themselves while developing a lasting sense of a wider community. The enthusiasm sparked by our Windrush heritage and the Black Lives Matter movement has deeply impacted many young individuals. They are keen to share their stories, raise awareness, and eagerly seek to educate school children and families about their heritage and Black Welsh History. Central to our approach was the idea of empowerment through agency. Recognising that each participant brings a unique perspective to the table, we empowered them to take the reins of the interview process. Rather than being subjected to external scrutiny, participants were given the opportunity to interview each other, an idea that emerged organically from within the group, fostering a sense of ownership over the storytelling process. In this collaborative setting, barriers were broken down.

The Holocaust and Wales: Internment of ‘enemy...

In this collection of resources, we explore the internment of Jewish refugees as ‘enemy aliens’ in 1939. After the outbreak of war in September 1939, all Germans and Austrians in Britain became ‘enemy aliens’ and had to register with the police. Although most remained at liberty, in the summer of 1940, restrictions tightened due to the risk of German invasion, and tens of thousands were interned. The increase in numbers of those interned exhausted the capacity of existing sites and, although most refugees were interned in camps in Britain, some were deported to other countries, notably Canada and Australia.Using two oral history testimonies, this resource explores the internment of Jewish Refugees as ‘enemy aliens’ in the UK and their experience of having been sent to camps in Canada and Australia.This is resource 2 of 2 on the topic of Internment of ‘enemy aliens’ and it is recommended that teachers use both resources.Image above: Enemy Aliens and Internees card for Heinrich David Pinkus.

The Holocaust and Wales: Kristallnacht 2

On 9 and 10 November 1938, the Nazi regime conducted a series of attacks called ‘pogroms’ against the Jewish population in Germany and other Nazi-occupied territories. This event became known as Kristallnacht or ‘Night of Broken Glass’ because of the shattered glass that filled the streets after the vandalism and destruction of synagogues, Jewish-owned businesses and homes. In this collection of resources, we explore former Welsh resident, Julius Weil’s recollections of this devastating event.
