Episode Details

The Legacy Museum, based in Alabama, is making history by bringing its powerful “Legacy of Slavery” exhibition to Edinburgh, Scotland, for the first time ever — free and open August 8–30 as part of the Edinburgh International Festival. This hour-long journey explores how slavery shaped global economies and connects those roots to today’s justice inequalities, including Scotland’s own colonial ties. Led by Equal Justice Initiative founder Bryan Stevenson, the show uses art and music to confront painful truths and deepen understanding. Festival director Nicola Benedetti sees it as a vital continuation of the festival’s mission since 1947: using culture to reckon with history and build a better future. Don’t miss this essential, uncomfortable, and transformative experience.
