Mary Seacole is taught about in schools these days, alongside Florence Nightingale as I helped my friends’ son with his homework on that one.

I was aware of Quintus Lollius Urbicus but don’t think I could remember his name off the top of my head. I might stash it away now for future reference. He was born in Numidia and died in Rome, so if we use that definition you can claim Julius Caesar as white Roman historical figure. And Hadrian who built The Wall.
