Guardian article: H&P Deputy Director on the male, white voices in public history
29 March 2018
H&P's deputy director, Dr Laura King (Leeds), has a piece in today's online Guardian under the Higher Education Network:
While public history generally is strong and healthy, who is given a platform remains problematic. We are starting to see more women and historians of colour on television, but still too narrow a range of historians gets heard. Instead, a few “big names” dominate – often white, male voices.
H&P is based at the Institute of Historical Research, Senate House, University of London.
We are the only project in the UK providing access to an international network of more than 500 historians with a broad range of expertise. H&P offers a range of resources for historians, policy makers and journalists.
