Inventing Race

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.

Origin Stories part 2

In part 1 of Origin Stories, we explored the dominant narratives around the beginning of the transatlantic slave trade. But within every accepted history are a multitude of stories, interpretations, and conflicting ‘truths’. In this episode, we try to understand how the origins of slavery are explained from the perspective of those who were enslaved. Featuring Dr. Jose Lingna Nafafe and Professor Toby Green.

Hippocrits

The Hippocratic Oath isn’t universal. But in the 18th century, the Oath began to be more widely used in medical schools across the British Empire and Europe. The Enlightenment was pushing medical developments along at a fast lick. But concurrently, chattel slavery was in full swing. And a dividing line quickly emerged, between who doctors saw as ‘patients’ and who they viewed as ‘guinea pigs’. Featuring Anna Arabindan-Kesson, an assistant professor at Princeton University in African American studies.

The Dis-carded

At the centre of the system of chattel slavery, was the body. Not the mind, not the soul but the physical vessel necessary to carry out backbreaking labour. And break backs it did...

Origin Stories part 1

Before the 400-odd years of the triangular trade, the plantations, the whips, the Sunday markets, the racial science. What were the first stirrings of an industry that we now understand as the pinnacle of inhumanity, but in the 1600s seemed the height of financial innovation?

In The Middle

The journey of the Middle Passage is one of the most evocative images of slavery, taught in schools as an example of brutality. It was the sea voyage of no return. In this episode, we discover the realities of this horrific journey and what legacies we still live with. Featuring Sowande Mustakeem, Associate Professor of History and African and African American Studies at Washington University in St. Louis. This episode also features music from Slavery At Sea: The Book Soundtrack by Sowande Mustakeen which can be streamed and purchased here. The full episode transcript can be found here.

Taking the High Ground

When we talk about the ‘British’ Empire and the ‘British’ slave trade, it’s easy to forget that England – although the central seat of power – was not the only country involved. And for the next three episodes, we’re going to turn our attentions to one of the nations that has all-too-often escaped the full scrutiny of its role in the wider system of slavery: bonnie Scotland itself. Featuring Dr. Karly Kehoe the Canada Research Chair in Atlantic Canada communities at St. Mary's University in Halifax. Full episode transcript can be found here.

How do we use it, what do we gain from it… and what it can take from us.
