How does the Empire continue to affect our lives in modern Britain? And why are we so unwilling at talking about it?
Every year we host a big thinker at the music festival Wilderness and our guest in 2023 was Sathnam Sanghera, the Times journalist whose two books on the history of the British Empire – Empireland and Stolen History – have transformed the way we think about our past and present. Sathnam returns to How To Academy in-person on 25th January to tell us about Empireworld – his new book about the lasting impact of the Empire on other nations across the globe. A few tickets are still available here.
