Listen "Episode 82 | It Wisnae Us"
Episode Synopsis
This week we tackle the emotive and controversial subject of Scotland’s involvement in slave trade and the profits made from the labours of enslaved people. From plantation owners, merchants, lawyers and ministers to the weavers producing slave cloth, the economy of Scotland benefited disproportionately. The wealth generated is visible today in our architecture and statues. As academic research peels back the layers it is important that we tell the story for future generations.
