Summary:
Historian Tony Warner shows how you can discover where to find Black History in your town or city. Most of Britain's towns and cities have a trading or financial area and it's in these areas that you'll often find rich evidence of Black History. Here Tony visits the Bank of England and handles a real solid gold bar. But Where did this gold come from? Some of Britain's earliest trading power came from a wealth of gold extracted from Africa. One of the first British mass-produced gold coins takes its name from the region of West Africa from which much of the gold used to make the coin originated.
