Readers interested in learning about the stories and experiences of
children who migrated to East London between 1930 and the present day
may enjoy Child Migrant Stories. The project was launched in 2016 with
inspiration from Dr. Eithne Nightingale's research on "life stories of
departure, arrival, and settlement [in East London]." Through pictures,
films, and biographies, this website explores the meaning of "home" and
the multi-cultural narratives that shape it. Users may want to begin by
navigating the East London Stories tab (under the Stories drop-down
menu), which will bring them to a database of images. By clicking on
each image, users can read the story of a child who migrated to Hackney,
Tower Hamlets, or Newham, East London, sharing their origin and the
reasons for their journey. The stories encapsulate a spectrum of
feelings, from "poignant [to] powerful [to] sometimes very funny." The
website also features several short films, which depict migrant
experiences "through images, music, and art." Teachers may find the
Learning Resources provided to accompany these films particularly
useful, as they include film guides with context and key words. Finally,
under Worldwide Stories users can explore tales of migration from other
corners of the globe, from Norway to New Zealand.
