A History of Sarrtjie Baartman with Monica Clarke

Saartjie Baartman was trafficked in 1810 and put on display at Piccadilly Circus in London, then sold to a French animal keeper who had her standing in a cage in Paris, where she died in 1815. The presentation is based on her book Hottentot Venus – the Story of Saartjie Baartman (2023, Austin Macauley),  written in the first person, giving Saartjie herself a chance to tell her narrative for the first time.
Learn about Baartman from author Monica Clarke at Blackheath Library on the 17th October 6pm-7pm.
