Title: Blood Legacy Author: Alex Renton Narrator: Alex Renton Format: mp3 Length: 13 hrs and 3 mins Release date: 05-06-21 Ratings: 5 out of 5 stars, 4 ratings Genres: Civilization Publisher's Summary: Through the story of his own family's history as slave and plantation owners, Alex Renton looks at how we owe it to the present to understand the legacy of the past. When slavery was abolished across most of the British Empire in 1833, it was not the newly liberated who received compensation, but the tens of thousands of enslavers who were paid millions of pounds in government money. The ancestors of some of those slave owners are among the wealthiest and most powerful people in Britain today.
