In May of 2020, Amplify Stroud published an article by co-founders Jamie O'Dell and George Thomas titled examining Stroud’s relationship to the slave trade. Subsequently, the pair were invited to speak at the Historic Towns and Villages Forum's November 5th webinar 'Whose Heritage Is It Anyway?'
For their presentation, Jamie and George put together a video reflecting on Stroud's questionable abolitionist history, in light of that summer's BLM protests. We thought their presentation would make a nice podcast episode, so we have reproduced it here on Amplify FM.
