The council want to know what YOU think about the impact of slavery and colonialism on Glasgow.
Glasgow residents are being asked to give their opinions on how the council should handle the city’s historical slavery trade links.
It aims to build on work being carried out by the slavery and colonial legacy working group, which hopes to prepare a report to be considered by the council. The council commissioned a report entitled Glasgow, Slavery and Atlantic Commerce: An Audit of Historic Connections and Modern Legacies carried out by University of Glasgow academic Dr Stephen Mullen.
The council also agreed to develop a “civic conversation regarding the history of the city” and examine “how best the complete history of the city can be understood and embraced.”
