Links in the Chain: Legacies of British slavery in Australia
By Georgina Arnott
In this week’s ABR Podcast, we feature an essay from the ABR archive: ‘Links in the Chain: Legacies of British slavery in Australia’ by Georgina Arnott. In this essay, Arnott considers how the field of Australian history will be reshaped by emerging links between British slavery in the Caribbean and early settlers to the Australian colonies. Georgina Arnott is ABR Assistant Editor and the author of several articles on the legacies of colonialism in Australia and two biographical works. Listen to Georgina Arnott’s ‘Links in the Chain: Legacies of British slavery in Australia’, published in the August 2020 issue of ABR.
