Lancaster University documentary examines contentious slavery issues
The question of how slavery’s history should be remembered is a burning issue.
Activists have advocated for the tearing down of statues in honor of slave traders; others have argued that history should be preserved at all costs.
On the evening of Tuesday November 23, Lancaster University will screen Monumental Crossroads, a documentary that examines these contentious issues.
