Much enjoyed this podcast and the way the story unfolded. Liked the links between each character, though I found the beginning very repetitive and boring at times.

This podcast has uncovered researched connections that, upon reflection, one knows intuitively must be there for most of us. Should appeal to people interested in race and equity, historians and genaeologists.

I loved this series and cantered through it in 3 sittings. Yrsa weaves the episodes together beautifully and it is incredibly well researched - I had goosebumps throughout. I’m sorry that some reviewers vehemently didn’t seem to ‘get it’. I find historical evidence & human anecdotes carefully...Read full review »

A well researched and very entertaining and educational podcast, anyone who complains about statues coming down or names being changed should listen to this for context

…white man bad. We get it. More unnecessary race baiting, digging over the ifs, buts, maybes of many yesteryear-ago, to the point of achieving nothing but stoking tensions now. The past is past. We’re all descendants of something, someone, but now is not then. Pods like this are divisive and...Read full review »

I really enjoyed the Human Resources podcast and found this to be a quite water downed version personally. Doesn’t do the topic justice or make it as relevant to modern day systems

Some of the things mentioned in the podcast doesn’t surprise me. What is interesting, and rightly so, how much of the “benefits” of slavery are in the every day in the UK which we don’t think about. There are a couple of assumptions made by interviewees that I don’t agree with, especially some of...Read full review »

Hated first episode due to vandalism of statue and smug Jen. However, after getting it was about the connection between people through their descendants and not just a “Bash the white British “ podcast , I found it very interesting and well produced. Some assumptions are too easily made by the...Read full review »

Just listened to the second episode. I will be sharing this my students who are studying to be teachers. Really amazing stories that need to be heard !

Dear white people, sorry factual history makes you uncomfortable, but you can’t plug your ears and run anyway from history forever. - a fellow white person who relies on credible evidence to form beliefs

Brilliant

So glad radio programs like this are being commissioned, it’s encouraged me to interrogate my ancestry. If only I had learnt this at school 20 years ago, I’d have a much better understanding of the culture and structures that I’m a part of. Would love to understand more why the other review was...Read full review »

An exercise in simplification and distortion of complex historical factors to push an ideological and deeply cynical interpretation. Fail.
