  • Summary

  • In Episode 8, we’re in conversation with Adisa Akintola about his PhD research examining how the colour black is used to describe people of African Caribbean descent and how they feel about that. He explains why he thinks the use of the word black to describe people is archaic and nonsensical and how ultimately he hopes to put a stop to it. He advises those considering undertaking a PhD to do something they are passionate about and to choose their supervisor carefully.
