Curated by historian of abolitionist ideas, Nathaniel Adam Tobias Coleman, this unique programme of short films showcases highlights from the University of Birmingham’s groundbreaking conference, last year, Undoing 2007; Preparing for 2038. Further information about the original conference can be found here
Challenging familiar, but misleading, narratives of ‘abolition’, the rigorous presentations and surprising conversations archived in these fifteen short films consider how communities can commemorate freedom-fighting, resistance, and abolition by harnessing reparative histories
The presentation of this playlist is dedicated to the memory of Dr Marika Sherwood (8th November 1937 – 16th February 2025), author of After Abolition: Britain and the Slave Trade Since 1807
