Episode Synopsis

How might we decolonize the archive? Clare and Yves are joined by Paul Daley, Walkley award-winning journalist and author whose work includes the column “Postcolonial” in the Guardian. Paul shares his forays into archives of colonial destruction and reflects on his addiction to the paper trail, before grappling with some thorny human questions. What do you do with a room full of bones? Should some archives be dis-assembled? And can historians afford to bite the hand that feeds?
