E-Books →The Crown's Silence The Hidden History of Slavery and the British Monarchy, UK Edition

A work of ground-breaking original research and narrative synthesis, it exposes the ways in which the British monarchy invested in, expanded, and defended the transatlantic slave trade for nearly three centuries and how it continues to profit from systems of racial exploitation to this day - while remaining silent in the face of that legacy. It will reveal how the Crown effectively ruptured and reshaped Britain's national narrative and collective memory of its own colonial past as well as the consequences of that deafening silence.
As former British colonies in the Caribbean consider severing their ties with the Crown (and the British royal family sends emissaries to try to keep them), The Crown's Silence tells a history that is very much in the headlines - and will no doubt continue to be. It will be the next chapter in revealing the lost histories of not only Britain and the United States, but of our world.
