Human civilization only began about 6,000 years ago. As author Emma Dabiri writes in her 2021 book, cheekily titled ‘What White People Can Do Next’, in the grand scheme of things, human beings are babies. A speck on the face of time and space. The thought puts into perspective how *new*, parts of society are, that seem entrenched from day dot: religion. Gender… Race.

Featuring writer and historian Subhadra Das.

Written by Moya Lothian MacLean

Editor and Producer - Renay Richardson

Researchers Arisa Loomba and Dr. Alison Bennett

Production Assistant - Rory Boyle

Sound Designer - Ben Yellowitz
