britains-legacy-of-slavery
Professor Catherine Hall (UCL History) and her team in the project Legacies of British Slave-ownership are examining how modern Britain, from its art collections and grand buildings to its financial institutions, has been built on the wealth generated from slavery. The project is tracing the slave owners who benefitted from the £20m paid in compensation in the 1830s and where this money subsequently went.

We all should accept that there was a slavery and it was horrible. We still should keep it in mind and accept our responsibility.

Very interesting and made me think of lubaina himids work, Naming The Money, which consisted of 100 cut out figures. Are you familiar with it?

@beatdoctor1: err, not much (except for the music in the background?). We use our SoundCloud channel to share public lectures and podcasts on research. We'll soon have comedy podcasts and highlights from classical music concerts.
