Description
Britain's Black Past by Gretchen Gerzina presents a recovered past, shedding new light on stories and analyses from 2017's Radio 4 series. New research brings to light previously unknown people, places, and events, offering fresh insights into Britain's complex history. Chapters written by scholars, artists, and independent researchers explore themes such as an early musician, the sale of slaves in Scotland, a grave now a shrine, and a country estate owned by a mixed-race slave owner. The book also delves into living history through modern plays, television programmes, and genealogical sleuthing. By examining Britain's Black Past, readers can gain a deeper understanding of similar situations that took place in the past, offering valuable context for our own time.
