The rise of the BLM movement in 2020 also saw the fall of the statue of Edward Colston in Bristol. But while some were pulling down statues of former white heroes, Jak Beula was busy putting up plaques to Black ones.
In 1994, Jak introduced the educational board game Nubian Jak (often described as "the black Trivial Pursuit”) to the world.
In 1998 he self-published the first edition of Nubian Jak's Book of World Facts - subtitled "The Ultimate Reference Guide to Global Black Achievement".
More recently he is the founder of the Nubian Jak Community Trust, which since 2006 has been honouring Black personalities of the past, and also organised Britain's first African and Caribbean War Memorial, in Windrush Square.
In this episode we discuss his career of commemorating Black historical heroes, what should be done with the statues of Colston, Rhodes and Churchill and why monuments matter.
