You would never guess from Nigel Biggar being ennobled, and Niall Ferguson being knighted, that there has been a revolution in how imperial historians actually talk about British imperial history. Christmas sympathy to the hundreds of historians out there doing actual nuanced work. Don't give up.

I've just read the LRB's take - from 1999 - on the Macpherson Report. It is: really really bad!! It concludes by saying "the most dangerous legacy of the Inquiry lies not in its specific recommendations but in its sentimentalised and unbalanced approach to the consideration of controversial issues."
