I am no longer producing new episodes of Deep Talk, but I hope you enjoy the 33 you have already. I am welcoming new language coaching clients, though. You can find out more on my website: ⁠⁠https://www.rhiannonelt.com/coaching⁠⁠ +++Today, I’m joined by Calum who has chosen the text we’ll be talking about this week:Questions raised about UK landmarks after Bristol statue torn down - Channel 4 Newshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVrGaGza0zoI recommend you watch this video before listening to the conversation (that’s what this podcast is all about, after all) as it lays out a lot of the context of what we talk about in today’s discussion.Calum is an English language teacher based in Lyon, France. He has a Master’s in History, and this study influenced his choice of topic today. We are talking about the push to re-evaluate how Britain sees its colonial past, particularly in its commemoration of philanthropists and wealthy merchants who earned their money through the slave trade.Download the Transcript:You can download the transcript for this episode here:www.rhiannonelt.com/deep-talk-podcastJoin the Waitlist for the Deep Talk Discussion Program:https://www.rhiannonelt.com/deep-talk-discussion-program Get in Touch:Join my mailing list here: www.rhiannonelt.comFollow me on Instagram: @rhiannoneltEmail me: [email protected]
