Campus Legacies: Sign up for upcoming walk
We invite you to sign up for this campus legacies walk on the 12th of May 3pm, with African Lives Northern England, developed with the Centre for Heritage.
20 April 2026
ALNE will guide you to uncover the history of the buildings, their global and colonial links and what it means for us today. The walk will take in some of the oldest and most important buildings on campus to reveal how they have been implicated in colonialism and engage with the histories of some of those of recent African descent whose lives have been influenced by Newcastle University, such as Martin Luther King Jr, Irene Ighodaro and Frederick Douglass.
Join us on Wednesday 12 May at 3pm at the Hatton Gallery for a 90 minute tour.
Places are limited for this the walking tour, please book your place asap via Walks :
