Una Marson was a pioneering political activist, playwright, poet, broadcaster and champion of global gender and race equality. Born in Jamaica, she lived and worked in London during the 1930s and 40s mixing with writers, film makers and political activists via organisations such as the League for Coloured Peoples and the International Alliance of Women.
As King’s moves into the former BBC World Service outpost Bush House, and we consider the history and meanings of ‘world service’, this is a timely moment to revisit Marson’s remarkable work for the BBC and beyond. Part of King's Arts And Humanities Festival.
