Innovators. Creators. Pioneering thinkers. We're highlighting the power of excellence and Black academic achievement past and present with the Oxford BHM 100.
Each entry has been nominated by a member of our community, recognising how the nominees and their research have either informed perspectives, embodied the strength it takes to be a pioneer or simply brought joy.
Pictured here is Jasmine Richards (@writeonauthor), founder of @storymixstudio, alum of @lmhoxford and one of the BHM 100.

Our Black History Month events and content streams will run University-wide throughout October. We’ll be focusing on the contributions of Black people, and people of Black heritage, throughout history to Oxford and to society as a whole. We’ll also reflect on some of Oxford’s uncomfortable legacies and look forward to the future of a more diverse community, with new initiatives to encourage Black undergraduate and graduate applicants.
