  • Summary

  • What does it mean to 'decolonise' a museum? And what is the difference being being 'not racist' and being 'anti-racist' in the way you showcase artefacts and exhibits?

    Aberdeen, as an ancient university, has acquired museum pieces from all over the world - and sometimes needs to make very tricky ethical decisions about what should happen to them.

    This introduction to decolonising is with Museum Studies lecturer Dr Rachel Smith, and the University's Head of Museums & Special Collections Neil Curtis.
