- On 22 November 2018, David Olusoga delivered the Migration Museum's annual lecture, titled The Perils of Our Insular Illusion, at SOAS.
We often forget the importance of migration to our history, in part because we forget just how global, international and connected Britain has always been. We have found ways, in our use of language and our writing of history, to minimise our interactions with other peoples and other nations - migrants, allies and subjects of the former empire.
British-Nigerian historian, producer and presenter David Olusoga argues that, to make sense of the Britain of 2018, we need to recover the global aspects of our history and culture.
David’s TV series include Civilisations (BBC 2), Black and British: A Forgotten History (BBC 2), The World’s War (BBC 2), A House Through Time (BBC 2) and the BAFTA winning Britain’s Forgotten Slave Owners (BBC 2).
David is also the author of Civilisations: Encounters and the Cult of Progress, The World’s War, which won First World War Book of the Year; Black & British: A Forgotten History, which was awarded both the Longman-History Today Trustees Award and the PEN Hessell-Tiltman Prize; and The Kaiser’s Holocaust: Germany’s Forgotten Genocide and the Colonial Roots of Nazism. He writes for the Guardian, the Observer and BBC History Magazine.
Not sure why he dislikes Britain so much ? In what other country could he ever have been appointed to a professorship based on criteria other than academic .?
The Emeritus Professor of Victimhood Studies. Oddly enough , he wrote a whining article in the Guardian lately ( where else ?!?! ) complaining that his students don't show up
for his lectures ....Hmm...? What COULD the reason be...?
how funny on the day the Guardian published an article fabricated by an algorithm
why is the debate on immigration divisive?
Yes, what are you here for.
Sorry I wouldn't listen to anything this clown has to say U Tube.
Black priveldge!
Profound information
Profound my arse, Olusoga is a liar, an idiot, a racist and a race grifter.
