After waves of Black Lives Matter protests, the toppling of statues and how we process our past became a key battleground in that struggle. Owen Jones speaks to people in two UK cities with a very different relationship to these monuments to discuss colonialism, anti-racism and what’s next for the Black Lives Matter movement
