About this event
RHS Colin Matthews Memorial Lecture In this lecture, Sathnam Sanghera takes this further, drawing on his work on the British Empire and his experience of writing history for a broad public. He explores what history is not: not fixed, not a balance sheet of “good” and “bad”, and definitely not the same thing as national heritage, nostalgic pride or self-lacerating shame.

If this is your kind of night, these are other ways in: a collection this venue belongs to, traditions it works in, and similar talks still playing in London this week.
Traditions this room works in
Tags on the venue. Other London rooms carry the same lineage. Not a claim that this film invented the tradition.
Also playing this week
Same kind of night (talks) in London. Spread across the week, not a ranking.
A different kind of night
Same city and close on taste. A different discipline, on purpose.
