$SUNDAY LECTURE: \u2018 A SHADOW OF MAGNITUDE\u2019$

This lecture will document and consider the historical presence of people of African ancestry in Cumbria between the seventeenth and nineteenth centuries. Building on the foundational research of regional archivists and historians, the lecture will dwell on the evidence that survives of these peoples’ lives and explain what that evidence reveals about Cumbria’s social makeup and longstanding links with other parts of the world.
