Description
We've all heard the famous saying, that at one point in time the sun never set on the British Empire. But, what is its lasting impact and complex legacy?

Author Sathnam Sanghera has explored the impact of Britain's colonial past - both within the UK through his book 'Empireland', and further afield assessing its global influence in his latest book, Empireworld. It was an absolute joy chatting to Sathnam about his books - I hope you find the conversation as interesting as I did! Get bonus content on Patreon Hosted on Acast.
