  2. So glad I could attend virtually the book launch for “Scotland's Transnational Heritage: Legacies of Empire, Trade and Slavery”. Insightful speakers and a very lively discussion about many issues related to this important topic. I’ve ordered me a copy of the book. edinburghuniversitypress.com/b #ScottishHistory #Scotland #Slavery #SlaveryHistory #BlackHistory #Empire #Colonialism #Museums #MuseumStudies #PopularHistory #PublicHistory #Books #BookLaunch #AcademicHistory #History #Heritage #Trade
