Ep 4: Black Edwardians

By: Stephen Fry, John Woolf, Nick Baker

Black historians talk about forgotten black figures from Africa, the Caribbean and the US as well as the continued presence of black people in the UK before during and after the period. Activists, musicians, athletes, writers, and artists whose histories have been forgotten – or erased.

Do yourself a favor- Listen!

Some information I already knew, some I didn't, but even the things I already knew about took on a new dimension. With each episode my understanding was enhanced, not because of the information alone, but also by the richness of the delivery of the information.

Tired

I would enjoy hearing about black Edwadians without the 'woke' tone that pervades this episode. All it does is widen the gap between people, rather than encouraging equality. As someone of mixed race I find it insulting to hear of the accomplishments of black people constantly followed by how white racism robbed them. I'm sure they wouldn't want their stories told that way.
