  • Summary

  • This is the Age of Enlightenment - a revolution in thought which told people “dare to think for yourself”. But it’s also the era when the Transatlantic Slave Trade transformed the globe. Bonnie meets an African philosopher living in Germany who challenged both the gods of Enlightenment philosophy, and took on slavery itself.
