S3E06: Cruel Britannia? w/Rianna Walcott & Genista Tate-Alexander - a podcast by Raj Thomas, Rowan Emslie and Warren Peace

Raj is holidaying with bae this week, so Warren and Rowan are left to pick up the pieces - joined by friend-of-the-pod Genista Tate-Alexander.

We chat the new Independent Group of MPs; highlight the Government's worrying ability to strip citizenship without due process; and chat the whitewashing and nostalgia for the British Empire - a major narrative behind Brexit.

We finish with Genista's interview with Rhianna Walcott, co-founder of Project Myopia - seeking to diversify and decolonise university curricula and teaching.
