• Black Tudors Whose Stories Shaped British History (ep 214)

  Our final podcast of Black History month will focus on Black Tudors, with some context from the years before and after the Tudor period and a sense of what is happening around the world. This is an area of Tudor history I do not know enough about, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to dig into the scholarship of so many wonderful historians to learn more. For history to show us what's possible, we need to know more of the stories and see the larger, messier, more inclusive picture of the past.Show Notes:Carol Ann [email protected]/carolannlloydThe Tudors by NumbersCourting the Virgin QueenHistory shows us what's possible.
