Since 1970, it's also been Black History Month in the USA, and since 1995 in Canada, as well (whereas it's observed in October in the United Kingdom, Ireland, and the Netherlands).

Earlier this year, the London-based travel-site BigSevenTravel.com recently came out with "The best cities in the world for art and culture in 2022", and of course London itself is high on the list: https://bigseventravel.com/best-cities-for-arts-culture/

I've always kind of intuited this, but just came across this video which confirmed it for me:London is badly put together ('designed' seems too purposeful a word for it): https://youtu.be/NpOCJdHAUjw

UK Theatregoers voted for their "best shows Ever" and their "most aspirational show". The results are in and all apart from one are still on in London's Theatreland: http://www.theatrebreaks.co.uk/top-uk-shows-seen-see/

A little humour / humor for y'all....
