Historia
The Black Experience Archive Trust (BEAT) is a national project working in partnership with local groups. Each local project feeds into the central project.
The West Green BEAT project was launched in 2006. It was a collaboration between filmmakers Migrant Media, the Park View Academy in West Green, and the London Metropolitan Archives. Pupils from the Academy were trained in digital media skills by staff from Migrant Media Limited, and encouraged to explore their community history, particularly the contributions of black people. They then conducted filmed interviews with members of the community, discussing their experiences of coming to and living in Britain.
BEAT Projects have included:
'music BEAT': ran from October 2008 - October 2009 at Highgate Wood School in North London. Students on the project learned research, filmmaking and journalistic skills and produced a 20 minute film on the history of black music in the UK as well as a series of exhibition panels. They explored how the music produced related to the struggles on the street that the black community engaged with over four decades (see 'Sounds of the Streets' LMA/4536/02/002).
