Olusoga, who studied History at the University of Liverpool and joined Ô°ÇøÒùÂÒ as Professor of Public History in 2019, says: “I got into history because I wanted to make sense of the forces that have affected my life… I’m from that generation who would look at Trevor McDonald on television – his gravitas and authority – and see hope and potential.”
