Commemorating Britain’s history can unite our society, not just provoke angry ‘culture war’ debates, according to the new ‘Remember Together’ initiative, launched in an open letter signed by prominent voices from culture, politics, faith, civil society and the military.

An online event, Forgotten Sacrifice: How can we Remember the Black and Asian soldiers of the Second World War? brought together expert voices on history, education and race to discuss how we can remember this shared history and mark the contribution of Black and Asian soldiers in the Second World War.
