What's it about?
The award-winning exhibition, ''Black Atlantic: power, people, resistance'', is on display for free in the Great Hall of LSE's Marshall Building from 6 October to 5pm on 31 October.
The exhibition, which was first shown at the Fitzwilliam Museum in Cambridge, reveals the stories that have been silenced from history, not just stories of exploitation, but those of resilience and liberation, too. It shows how through resisting colonial slavery, people produced new cultures known as the Black Atlantic that continue to shape our world.
