Going to this exhibition Manchester Museum was insightful and necessary. I was overcome with emotions of how the younger version of me would have loved to learn about who I was! I will continue this through education and make students aware of what I so desperately needed!

I was lucky enough to be among the first journalists to visit the new South Asia Gallery at Manchester Museum, to write about it for the Financial Times (in today's paper and online). Read about it here ft.com/content/b405a4…

Sickening to hear this from the curator of this year's Venice Biennale, Lesley Lokko – large numbers of participants from Africa have been denied visas to attend:
