Legacies of slavery, ‘hidden histories’, and contemporary racism

An in-person, ‘in conversation’ style event with Law School alumnus, the Rt Hon. the Lord Boateng, and the Bristol Illustrious Visiting Professor Mamokgethi Phakeng (Vice-Chancellor of the University of Cape Town, South Africa), hosted by the International Research Partnerships team at the University of Bristol.

The panellists will explore how institutions – such as the Anglican church and universities – think about navigating the complex range of issues tied up with legacies of slavery, colonialism, and links to contemporary racial justice.

The discussion will be followed by questions from the audience, which will be chaired by Professor Tim Cole, Professor of Social History and Director of the Brigstow Institute at the University of Bristol.
