Elspeth King - A Tribute: the Power of History

This special bonus episode pays tribute to the late Elspeth King, one of Scotland’s most influential curators and historians. Originally recorded in 2020, this conversation explores the absence of Scottish history in the national curriculum, the importance of heritage in shaping identity, and the power history holds in understanding who we are. Elspeth King’s passion for preserving and promoting Scotland’s cultural history shines through every moment of this interview. As we mourn her passing, this episode serves as both a reminder of her remarkable legacy and a call to keep Scottish history alive in our schools, museums, and communities. #scottishhistory #scottisheducation #scottishheritage   The Indypodcasters team produce a NEW podcast episode every Friday search for Scottish Independence Podcasts wherever you get your podcasts.  Remember to like and subscribe!
