Identity: The Legacy of Empire

In this second episode of The Identity Series, we delve into the
fraught and complex topic of empire, examining the decline and
collapse of various empires across Europe, their aftershocks and
their impact on the identity of their citizens.


Speaking to experts and artists from a range of backgrounds, we
discuss topics including the legacy of empire, the impact of
colonisation, how different cultures and nationalities have
shaped British music, and the power of music to shape identity
and express displacement.


Speakers include Sathnam Sanghera, journalist and best-selling
author of Empireland: How Imperialism Has Shaped Modern Britain;
Lloyd Bradley, one of the UK's leading black music experts and
cultural commentators; and Samira Brahmia, a French-Algerian
musician.
