In today's special bonus episode, Jackson sits down with Historian and Author Hakim Adi to discuss his new book with Allen Lane 'African and Caribbean People In Britain: A History' which has recently been shortlisted for the prestigious 2023 Wolfson History Prize. In this episode, Hakim talks to us about the archaeological evidence that African people had migrated to Britain in the prehistoric and ancient periods, he addresses the misconceptions surrounding African people in Medieval and Tudor Britain and also details the political organisation and movements of African and Caribbean people in Britain from late 19th Century to the 21st Century.
