<p>New Guest Expert! On this week’s Aftermath, Rebecca speaks with Professor of Sociology at Yale University, Emily Erikson, about The Black Hole of Calcutta and the legacy that emerged in its wake. Emily's work has focused on the emergence of early multi-national firms and the structure of early modern global trade and reflects on the events that led to what we now know as British Imperial Rule. Afterward, Patreon Subscribers can revisit the board with Fact Checker Chris Smith and Producer Clayton Early. Not part of the Alamy?
