As part of UK Black History Month, History from a New Perspective has been exploring London's historic relationship with the Transatlantic slave trade. This is a short episode which explains how the city's wealth grew as a result of slavery in the Caribbean and the Americas. The episode also explores how Britain later abolished the slave trade and slavery. Joseph Keen visited the 'London, Sugar and Slavery: 1600-present' exhibition at the London Museum Docklands.
