Heritage Walk Location 2: Mandela Mural

A mural of Nelson Mandela on a building in Liverpool

The Mandela Mural by artist Jon Culshaw, on the Kuumba Imani Millenium Centre, a legacy of the Liverpool Black Sisters.

“The biggest legacy of Liverpool Black Sisters is the impact made to the lives of the women and families who gained support, advice or guidance in order to access opportunities not afforded to them in the 70s and 80s, and who were able to gain a better perspective of their contribution to the city and the Black community. Kuumba Imani Millennium Centre is a community building that was the vision of the Sisters, that has turned into their reality” Michelle Charters, CEO of Kuumba Imani Millennium Centre and former member of Liverpool Black Sisters, speaking in 2018.
