Caribbean Nottingham Nurses Seven Straw Student Students Sunglasses
EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a memorable moment in history, as seven Black British Caribbean and African student nurses take a break from their studies to enjoy a day out in Nottingham during the 1960s. The joy and camaraderie among the group are palpable as they line up for a group picture, with three women donning sun hats and three men wearing sunglasses to shield their eyes from the sun. The women's hats add a playful touch to the image, while the men's sunglasses exude a cool and confident air. The setting of Nottingham, a city in the East Midlands of England, serves as a reminder of the international diversity that was beginning to emerge in the UK during this era. These seven individuals, four men and three women, represent a significant contribution to the nursing profession and the broader society, breaking barriers and paving the way for future generations. The absence of their uniforms in this photograph adds an element of informality and relaxation, allowing us to see these individuals as people, rather than just student nurses. This image is a testament to their resilience, determination, and the importance of taking time to unwind and connect with one another. The 1960s was a time of great social and political change, and this photograph encapsulates the spirit of unity, progress, and the pursuit of happiness among these Black British Caribbean and African student nurses.
