BBC History Magazine History Extra Podcast: African History Special

Picture
I visited the  Golden Hind replica in Brixham with BBC History Magazine to talk about the Africans that came to England with Francis Drake, and those he encountered on his circumnavigation voyage of 1577-80. Hear about Diego the Cimaroon who died from an arrow wound, Maria, abandoned heavily pregnant on Crab Island, Indonesia, and about other Africans in Tudor England.

Very Loose Women Revamped on Resonance 104.4FM

Picture
I went down to Borough the other night to appear as a guest on the Very Loose Women: Revamped show on Resonance 104.4FM. We had a great chat about Africans in London, including Resonable Blackman the Southwark silkweaver who would have lived a short walk from the studio. We also talked about gambolling spring lambs!



Londonist Out Loud: A Podcast about London with N.Quentin Woolf

Picture
I went to St. Olave Hart Street, where many Africans appear in the parish registers, to talk to N.Quentin Woolf  about Africans in Tudor London. We checked out the monument to Paul Bayning, a privateering magnate who had five Africans in  his household, and talked about other men and women of the parish, including the Portuguese Jewish Dr. Hector Nunes and his African maidservants Grace and Mary.
