About this Event
On March 21, 2022 we lost Dr Nicole Andrews, who had been fighting breast cancer. Nicole was a founder member of the Organisation of Black Unity and the driving force behind getting the Marcus Garvey Centre renovated. Nicole was an activist, mother and scholar who was dedicated to the uplift of the community and to researching the health inequalities facing Black women. Her academic work has only been brought more into focus by her death at the hands of a cancer that is three times more likely to K*ll Black women.
To honour her memory we will be opening the Nicole Andrews Community Library in the Marcus Garvey Centre, which would not be open with her efforts. The library will be a place to share ideas, come together and generate new research projects.
We will open on March 21st, the 1st anniversary of her death and welcome anyone who wants to celebrate her life and learn more about the library.
