Black Action in Hackney

Fair and equal representation for Hackney’s diverse communities on local and national issue was a challenge. Working groups and organisations were setup to improve this with specific focus on target groups, such as the Black People’s Association and Black and Ethnic Minority Women.
Others were showing their sympathies with groups, movements or activities, such as radical feminism or the Black Power political movement. Both of these are
thought to use the Black Power fist within the symbol for female gender.
