Medieval Scotland 2: Writing is Overrated

from We're Not So Different · host WNSD Pod

folks, we're back with part 2 of our series on Medieval Scotland wherein we encounter the Kingdom of Alba, which is what the English called Scotland back then. we don't know what they called themselves because they weren't too fond of writing, which is a big theme this time. we look at the rise and fall of Alba, the historical MacBeth, and the Normanization of Alba by the royal court against the wishes of basically everyone else below them. and hooboy, are they going to have good reason to hate the Anglo-Normans after this whole fiasco.Gaza charities mentioned:Sameer Project linktree: https://linktr.ee/thesameerprojectMedical Aid for Palestinians: https://www.map.org.uk/?form=FUNWUFNAGRA&gad_source=1&gad_campaignid=22639586572&gbraid=0AAAAAChbIjLCoXHMr3kwCyhxoSdKJe7R_&gclid=CjwKCAjwkvbEBhApEiwAKUz6-wC9TFhQELR8W-es_iDuoIxpZUk9EXFGS6aVRC5xhaY7ChzEV03fJBoC-O0QAvD_BwE
