Black History: Are children learning enough about it?
"You're a history teacher? You don't look like one."
A Year 7 pupil's words to 25-year-old Otis Blaize, who works at a school in south London.
He said the black boy smiled with excitement when he replied that he was indeed a history teacher.
Why? Because Otis looked similar to him.
This Black History Month on the Sky News Daily podcast, Otis shares his own experience of growing up, his aspiration to become a good role model for young people and the importance of the subject.
Sky's Gamal Fahnbulleh is also joined by Kimberly McIntosh, columnist at gal-dem magazine and Calvin Robinson - a school governor and former assistant headteacher - as we look at teaching black history and how it is included in the curriculum.
