This week we are joined by artist, curator, business owner, and creative producer Stacey Olika. Her work centres around representation and social change. In this episode we discuss the removal of the Edward Colston statue, museums as institutions of knowledge, why preserving racist statues aren’t synonymous with preserving history, and decolonising the curriculum.

In our first episode recorded on the inaugural #blackouttuesday, Aba, Delali, Melissa and Dominique discuss the current events which have exposed the global crisis of racial injustice and systemic racism. We react to the response of civil society, corporates, governments, brands and friends/neighbours family. This was our attempt at a proactive discussion about what authentic allyship is and trying to pave a way forward admist the trauma felt by the Black community.
