BBC Interview: David Olusoga

The British-Nigerian historian and broadcaster joined us for the 2021 BBC Interview to discuss his work as author, academic and documentarian, exploring and uncovering the forgotten histories of Empire and colonialism. David was also one of the guest curators of our 2021 Retrospective: Films belong to those who need them – fragments from the history of Black British Cinema, which celebrated the history of Black British culture on the screen. The talk was hosted by BBC journalist and newsreader Clive Myrie.
