For her final episode of What are you looking at? podcast Pip Stafford talks to Nadia Rafaei, Alex Kelly, and Amy Spiers, asking them: What *can* art do?

This episode explores how art can contribute to social change in the world. Nadia talks about the importance of exploring political identity through her work, Alex discusses how artists can collaborate with or contribute to social movements, while Amy shares how her work aims to highlight some of Australia's history of colonial violence. They emphasise that art can help unravel complex topics, tell stories, imagine futures, inspire conversations and act as a resistance tool, challenging ingrained structures and systems of thought.

This episode was produced, edited and hosted by Pip Stafford for Contemporary Art Tasmania.  Additional music from Blue Dot Sessions.

Only Collections in The Building is a podcast series by researcher and museum activist Heba Abd el Gawad, and Associate Professor Johanna Zetterstrom-Sharp, as part of UCL’s Institute of Archaeology AHRC funded Mobilising Collections for Institutional Change: Egypt at the Horniman’ project.
 
Activists, artists, and indigenous practitioners are being invited to intervene in or disrupt museum spaces with the aim to bring change. But meaningful collaboration relies on much larger structural or professional changes that they rarely have the power to implement.
 
There is so much talk about museums, decolonisation, and social justice, but very little that is grounded in the day-to-day work of structural change and how it impacts the people who are relied on to implement it. It is in this everyday work that relationships can breakdown. Rather than having a breakdown, we will ask what it means in practice to put people before collections by sharing our experience working together on All Eyes on Her! (https://www.horniman.ac.uk/project/all-eyes-on-her/), a community-collaborative exhibition at the Horniman.
 
This series is produced by Maria Christodoulou, creator of From Root to Vine.
 
Episode 1 uses a packet of scarf pins from the 1990s to explore how everyday resistance is hidden through museum practice.

In the first episode of the new Decolonial Dialogues mini-series, hear what decolonising the business school means from one of the leading voices in the field, Professor Bobby Banerjee in conversation with Birmingham Business School’s Professor of Inclusive Leadership, Donna Ladkin.

In this episode, we delve into what decolonising the business school looks like from the perspective of an educator. We speak to Professor Bobby Banerjee, where his research focuses on sustainability, climate change, and postcolonial and decolonial movements. He joins us from Bayes Business School, formally Cass Business School, whose name change in the wake of June 2020’s Black Lives Matter movement, sparked conversation within the wider business school environment. Bobby is a leading voice in the debates surrounding decolonising the business school, who has inspired our own journey through his ‘Manifesto for Decolonising the Business School’ and work with ETHOS: The Centre for Responsible Enterprise. Bobby and Donna discuss their journeys toward decolonial thinking, the balance between working in a business school and critiquing its operations, and Bobby’s multi-cultural student experience. Reflecting on his own journey with decolonisation, through academia, activism and as an educator, this conversation between Professor Bobby Banerjee and Professor Donna Ladkin gives listeners a deeper understanding of what decolonising is, the challenges the business school faces in decolonising, and practical steps we can all take to get there.

Only Collections in the Building Episode 2: I don’t accept Horniman’s gift.

What does it mean to be generous, when that generosity is built on the exploitation of others?

In this episode we explore the limits of good intentions and how inherited stories of public generosity impact on our ability to tell truthful histories in the present.

The Horniman in South London takes its name from Frederick Horniman, a liberal MP, abolitionist and a Quaker. He is a man remembered in the Horniman’s institutional aims for his founding gift to the people of London in 1901. Horniman’s gift included his collections, a considerable plot of land, and money to build a new Museum that would “bring the world to forest hill”. 

But this world was a colonial one, and Horniman was a tea trader. It is a world that enabled this liberal man and others like him to travel widely, build imperial connections and drive significant profit margins, all without recognition of the labour, entitlement and exploitation that underpinned it.

Only Collections in The Building is a podcast series by researcher and museum activist Heba Abd el Gawad, and Associate Professor Johanna Zetterstrom-Sharp, as part of UCL’s Institute of Archaeology AHRC funded Mobilising Collections for Institutional Change: Egypt at the Horniman’ project. In this episode we also speak to Nathalie Cooper, PhD student at the University of Warwick.

The series is produced by Maria Christodoulou, creator of From Root to Vine.
