The 1 st October marks the start of Black History Month in the UK. At United Agents we support, promote and celebrate our Black clients’ work throughout the year – not just in October. We use this opportunity to reflect on the history of Black people working in our industry, the first Black British Authors, Actors, Directors and Writers who fought to be seen, to be heard, and paved the way for others.

We take this moment to showcase some of our “Stars of Tomorrow” – our Black clients aged 30 and under, whose contribution to our cultural lives will – we believe – help to shape the future.
