ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this episode we’re venturing onto the bustling city streets of 18 century London, trying to uncover the traces of the Black individuals who became part of the working class communities – and sometimes elite society – of the British capital, the seat of power that directed the trade that has usually brought them to these shores in the first place.
Featuring PhD researcher at the University of Birmingham, Montaz Marché.
