Hello, we are the Young Historians Project. We aim to encourage the knowledge of Black History and History as a discipline. For each one, teach one.
Today me and my cousin Kaden will be talking about Kofoworola Abeni Pratt who was a Nigerian-born nurse amongst many other achievements. We will explore her life and the role that she played in the British healthcare system.
