An exhibition looking at the legacy of colonialism - and the role it played in the birth of climate change - has opened in London.
Eleven artists with a personal connection to Africa, the Caribbean and South America have pinpointed environmental change as a racial process, with deep roots in colonial history.
Through this collection of artworks, the overlapping crises of environmental damage and colonialism, are put under scrutiny.
Presenter: Adrian Finighan
Guests:
Ekow Eshun. Curator - 'We Are History'.
Juergen Zimmerer - Professor at the University of Hamburg, focussing on Colonialism, Genocide Africa & postcolonial memory.
