Slave Britain is an exhibition of photos, by Panos Pictures, illustrating the reality of the modern trade in human beings, 200 years after the slave trade was legally abolished in Britain. Blackheath & Greenwich Amnesty International will be displaying the photos in Lewisham Library from this Saturday (24th November) until 10th December.
The end of November will also see the opening of the new Atlantic Worlds gallery at the Maritime Museum. This new gallery deals with, among other thing, the triangular trade in African slaves.
