Elizabeth Obi is an activist and founder of the Remembering Olive Collective, which researched and documented the life of black activist Olive Morris. Obi joined the British Black Panthers in 1972, and was later a founding member of the Brixton Black Women's Group. In 1972, along with Morris, Obi squatted at 121 Railton Road in Lambeth, above a launderette, where they resisted many eviction attempts. 121 Railton Road continued to be squatted until 1999, one of the longest squats in Brixton.
