This webinar will discuss the link between buildings in Bath and Bristol and the transatlantic slave trade.
Beckford’s Tower is running three new online webinars as part of its ongoing collaboration with State of Trust. These events, which are free for anybody to enjoy via online livestream, will be based on the important themes of the transatlantic slave trade, Tacky’s Rebellion, and the novel “Cane Warriors” by Guardian Prize winner Alex Wheatle. The facilitator for each event will be renowned journalist and broadcaster, Terry Baddoo.
This second webinar, on Wednesday 27 September 7-8pm, will feature the speakers Dr Amy Frost, Amanda Egbe and Rob Mitchell: “Historic Buildings & the Slave Trade”
*Update as of 25.9.23: We are delighted to introduce Cleo Lake as an additional panel member for this webinar.*
