There will also be a 6pm talk during the late event titled ‘Murder on the Zong’. Details of the 1781 Zong/Zorg massacre were exposed via a 1783 court case. By engaging with archival material, history scholarship, alongside visual art and creative writing, this talk considers the massacre and court case in relation to abolitionism, British history, and African diasporic (re)memory. Separate booking is required for this talk from the Museum late. For ticketing details, visit the page below.
