In conjunction with this, and in the context of movements such as Rhodes Must Fall and Black Lives Matter, calls have been made to reassess the silences, ambivalences, and elisions surrounding the implications of academic institutions and disciplines in histories of the slave trade, imperialism, and colonialism.
