David Olusoga, a British historian, writer, broadcaster, presenter, and filmmaker, has built an impressive career across various media platforms. He holds the title of Professor of Public History at the University of Manchester, showcasing his commitment to disseminating historical truths and complexities to a broad audience. However, Olusoga's reach extends beyond academia, as he regularly utilizes his expertise on public forums such as The One Show and The Guardian. His work has been acknowledged with several awards, including the prestigious Hessell-Tiltman Prize.

Olusoga's contributions to television have been both influential and educative, with series such as "Black and British: A Forgotten History," "The World's War," "A House Through Time," "Britain's Forgotten Slave Owners" and currently "Union with David Olusoga" shedding light on under-explored aspects of history. His literary works, which mirror the themes of his television series, include "The Kaiser's Holocaust: Germany's Forgotten Genocide and the Colonial Roots of Nazism" and "Civilisations." These achievements have earned Olusoga a place in the Powerlist ranking of the 100 most influential Black Britons multiple times, even reaching the Top 10 in 2021.

Further demonstrating his impact as a notable figure in the field of history, Olusoga was appointed an Officer of the Order of the British Empire (OBE) in 2019 for his services to history and community integration. His inaugural professorial lecture at the University of Manchester, titled "Identity, Britishness and the Windrush," was an impactful exploration of British identity. Olusoga's expertise extends to military history, empire, race, and slavery, making him a sought-after voice on these subjects. This was evident when he was chosen to host the program "Barack Obama Talks To David Olusoga," in which former President Barack Obama discussed his presidential memoirs.
