Back during the summer of 2020, bound by a shared frustration and unrelenting hope of a better future, The Black Scholarship Collective was born.

On behalf of The Black Scholarship Collective, we invite you to join us for an inspiring evening celebrating the voices behind the groundbreaking book, The Black PhD Experience, a transformative anthology that explores the doctoral journey from the perspectives of Black scholars in the UK published by Bristol University Press.

By bringing our collective together for an evening of communion and celebration we offer a unique opportunity to hear directly from the book’s editors and contributors, including a special talk from renowned scholar Jason Arday.

Event Highlights

Talk by Prof Jason Arday: Gain insights from one of the leading voices in education and social justice.

Meet the Editors and Contributors: Engage in meaningful conversations with the minds behind the book, including our editors (William Ackah, Jacqueline Darkwa, Wayne A. Mitchell, De-Shaine Murray, and Madina Wane) and contributors over a drinks reception.

Book Purchase and Signing: Copies of The Black PhD Experience will be available for purchase, with the chance to have your copy signed by the editors.

Tickets are free but limited. Reserve your spot now to ensure you don’t miss this opportunity to connect with the authors and explore the themes of this powerful book.
