Our final podcast of Black History month will focus on Black Tudors, with some context from the years before and after the Tudor period and a sense of what is happening around the world. This is an area of Tudor history I do not know enough about, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to dig into the scholarship of so many wonderful historians to learn more.

For history to show us what's possible, we need to know more of the stories and see the larger, messier, more inclusive picture of the past.

As it's Black History Month in the US, I thought I would share some of my favorite Black women in British history that I think we all need to learn more about.

History shows us what's possible.

When faced with important decisions, what makes us say "yes" or "no"? Are our responses based on circumstance, fear of the person making the request, or our values? This week we take a look at Macbeth, Hamlet, and Thomas More to think about our values and how we use them.
