OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Simukai Chigudu is Associate Professor of African Politics at the Oxford Department of International Development and Fellow of St Antony’s College, Oxford.
He is currently writing a book called, When Will We Be Free? Living in the Shadow of Empire and the Struggle for Decolonisation, (forthcoming with The Bodley Head and Crown, 2024). This book will combine memoir, political history and cultural criticism to show how colonialism continues to shape politics, society and culture in Africa and in Britain and to explore what it really means to decolonise.
In this talk, he will speak with Dr Catherine Grasham on decolonising knowledge production in Africa, colonial legacies and Rhodes Must Fall.
