BUEI Talks in Partnership With The Bermuda National Trust

Monday, June 9 at 6pm

Closing out BUEI’s World Oceans Day activities, BUEI Talks and The Bermuda National Trust present: The Life and Death of Captain Cook, Re-Explored, an illustrated talk by best-selling author Hampton Sides. JAMES COOK was arguably Britain’s greatest navigator, and his three ambitious voyages around the globe were among the most consequential in world history. But his legacy has become controversial today, as island communities around the globe have begun to view the vaunted explorer as a symbol of colonialism and the tip of the imperial spear.
