Future Tense: Conversations at Manchester Museum

About this title

A curator and a community activist discuss their approaches to collaborative community work and their visions for decolonising the Manchester Museum’s Africa collection. Featuring contributions from curator Dr. Njabulo Chipangura and peace activist Councillor Erinma Bell MBE, the film situates the conversation within broader debates on restitution and colonial legacies in UK museums. A creative intervention by Manchester-born artist and poet Rochá Dawkins connects the museum’s past, present, and future.
