Professor Kate Dossett's inaugural lecture now available to watch online

The School was pleased to celebrate Professor Kate Dossett's inaugural lecture, 'Changing the Script: Women as History Makers', in October 2024.

 This talk considered the history of women who built archives and forged creative new ways to become history makers.

Reflecting on the history of the institutions that shaped my own learning experiences as a young white woman researching Black women’s history in predominantly male, white History departments in the early 2000s and, in conversation with some of the brilliant women I’ve worked with, we explored how, together, we can change the script which positions those marginalized by gender, sexuality, race and class on the sidelines of history.  

This lecture is now available online for those who were unable to attend the live event: watch on Youtube.
