Invisible Voices:
This is a ground breaking performing history tour delivered in partnership with Algorithm, that pushes the boundaries of how data research and history is presented in communities. The tour showcases Dr Martin Glynn's unique style of research in 'The Black Presence in Crime and Punishment in the UK, 1750-1900'. It explores the intersection of criminology and history as a way of contextualizing the historical black presence in crime and punishment in the UK. Through case studies, court transcripts, and biographical accounts it reimagines the understanding/s of the role of history in shaping contemporary perceptions. Dr Martin Glynn's book 'Invisible Voices' :-
: • Moves beyond the confines of presenting ‘criminological history’ as monocultural
• Demonstrates how ‘mainstream criminology’ is complicit in obscuring ‘hidden criminological histories
• Critically assesses the implications regarding the positioning of ‘the black presence’ within the discipline of criminology
• Revises current thinking around excluded, marginalized, and muted histories, when looking at ‘crime and punishment’ as a whole.
