In 2020 the National Trust released a report that found 93 of its properties had links to colonialism and slavery.
The report did not tell properties to do anything like change names or tear down statues. But the backlash was still fierce and the head of the Trust recently said she received death threats.
We look at what the report actually said, what properties have done in response, and we hear from the group that has led the campaign against the report.
