"In my first year I did the history of the modern Middle East, so was reading an author called [Zachary] Lockman. One of my classes was introduction to Italian film and history and we watched a ton of amazing Italian films which was really cool."

Book Favorite

"This is a great, comprehensive introduction for the many people who don’t know the history of The Atlantic Slave Trade or the history of slavery. It walks you through who the architects of slavery were and more important, who the architects of the abolitionist movement were. It’s an integral part of our history that feels too ignored. It is painful, horrifying, but illustrative of the evil and the goodness that can live side by side."
