Is Britain Ready for an Imperial Reckoning?

Soon the eyes of the world will be on Westminster Abbey for the coronation of Britain’s new king, in a ceremony meant to reflect the country’s modern and multicultural society. But behind the pomp and pageantry lies the shadow of Britain’s colonial legacy. Michel Martin talks with Sathnam Sanghera, whose book “Empireland” is an examination of Britain’s complicated past.
