Schoolgirl creates black history book club after experiencing comments about her skin

• Watch more from Charlie Frost

A nine-year-old girl from Ipswich has created a book club to teach her schoolmates about black heritage. 

A'niah Soanes started the weekly club after experiencing comments about her skin colour. 

She decided to educate her friends by coming together to read a book about a black person or written by an author who is black. 

A’niah’s friends, Jasmine and Isla helped her set up the club.

Every Friday the Year Five students read a book with other year groups.

The girls hope that by sharing these stories they can show others how important black history is.
