Frances Elizabeth Johnson & John Chance were brought to Lancaster from the Caribbean as part of the transatlantic slave trade. Amazing to see how @knotandgather has portrayed these & 4 other black Lancastrians in her #facingthepast exhibition at the Judges Lodgings Museum – at North West, England

Just arrived- really insightful study of the way that the Caribbean’s colonial racial politics shaped environmental disaster relief. Important for historians of colonialism, race & humanitarianism.

Nice to see this report on the summer school ‘How to Talk About British Colonialism…’ in the Geographical Association Magazine today. We’re all learning as we go along and it was a fantastic group of people to learn with.

Not much is known of Pre-Colonial African metropolitan life. You seldom hear about city life & culture of the era. Historians Walter Rodney & Robin Walker show that Europeans destroyed over 100 major cities during the conquest of Africa. A thread on great Pre-Colonial cities.
