One of the stops of our Bristol tour today, this is probably the only coat of arms you will see in Bristol - it belonged to those involved in the slave trade. There's a siren on one side and Father Chronos on the other.
@SWWDTP
Today we had a chance to see the statue of Edward Colston, after it was removed in 2020. At which we talked about memory in public spaces against memory in museums.
@SWWDTP
First session of the day! We discussed imperative issues such as what does decolonisation mean to you personally, and what does an ideal museum look like?
