This lecture explores the relationship between King Charles II and the slave trade. Over the course of 2025 there has been celebration of this monarch’s contribution to the town of Northampton. But who really did pay the price for this?

Join us to uncover the deep-seated legacies of injustice that continue to shape our understanding of history today.

This Black History Month lecture will be delivered by Tré Ventour-Griffiths
