Evidence commemorating Britain's colonial past doesn't just reside in statues and landmarks found in the big cities; it can be found all around us and without realizing it, we interact with this evidence throughout the course of our daily lives. As the debate on colonial statues and landmarks continues, Tracy DW suggests that using historical enquiry could help us make decisions about what should or shouldn't remain about the past. Since the time of release of this podcast Tracy has discovered three other roads in Watford with colonial connections; Durban Road, Pretoria Road and Roberts Road. What do you think are the significance of these names with Britain's colonial past? Through her podcasts, Tracy DW promotes a global approach to understanding history and invites you to share her learning journey about Britain's colonial past. She asks the question 'History is...a matter of fact or perspective?' and invites you as the listener to explore possible answers.
