Brilliant honest self examination from one of the most honest news outlets.
As a Guardian reader, and hailing from Manchester, this work has opened my eyes to my ignorance of history and the system that has prevented the telling of it.
Heartbreaking history that, sadly, cannot be altered. This story MUST be told and retold and never be forgotten.
Makes me ashamed to be British.
Highly recommended! Keep up the great work!
This series is beautiful to listen to. Full of humanity and inspiring. Thank you.
