The Breakfast Club
Camden Market (definitely check out the French burgers, Thai, Vietnamese, Malaysian, Jamaican, Colombian, etc. food stands around there)
I forgot the name of this Middle Eastern restaurant somewhere in North London...It’s in an area that got a lot of Lebanese, Egyptians, Greeks, and a lil bit of Black folks. But the restaurant got this HUGE platter of grilled meats (lamb, goat, and beef) and vegetables that’s like £50-something (nearly $70) but trust me, it’s so worth it
The Halal joints got awesome shawarma and the workers were chill whenever Black ppl walked inside and patronized. Be sure to bring cash tho, they don’t accept credit nor USD.
Borough Market got some good food
Go to Brixton for some of THE best Jamaican, West Indian, and West African food on that side of the Atlantic. A lot of ppl recommend this place called Negril too.
Forgot the name of the street but there’s some good Ethiopian places near King’s Cross.
The food courts at the malls are wayyyy better than the ones here in the States.
I’ll get back to you if I remember more.

What’s it like in your part of town?
Mainly consists of Northern and East Africans eg Algerians and Eritreans with a mix of Afro Caribbean’s, Eest Africans, Eastern Europeans and Irish
Used to be quite decent but getting a bit rundown. Quite a bit of culture around here, remnants of Micheal X Black House era, sadly a lot of the black revolutionaries fell to the coke and alcohol demons. Only thing I would say is above average are the schools but even there funding is slowly decreasing

Knowledge is the Greatest gift

I’m a History major and first semester senior at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore (an HBCU) and I studied International Business Management under CIEE.
You can look up many study abroad groups such as CIEE, SAI, Go Overseas, IES Abroad, Cultural Experiences Aboard, etc. and compare and contrast the program prices and the type of programs they have on offer that you wanna study as well as the cities and countries they go to. If you got a good amount of bread on you to pay for the program and air travel along with financial aid assistance and maybe even consider the option of applying for a scholarship if you need extra funds, definitely think about applying. If you go to London, you don’t really need any vaccination shots other than a Tetnus shot.

That’s a strong mix of cultures going on in one neighborhood. Speaking of Black revolutionaries, I’ve been wanting to learn more about that aspect of Black British history. I really wish I could’ve visit the Black Cultural Archives (think that’s the name) in Brixton
