.& the sister case of the Gweagal spears, which @rodkelly77 has campaigned tirelessly to have repatriated. I believe the @MAACambridge recently loaned 3 (?) of these to the NMA in Canberra - they should then go on to @statelibrarynsw for community engagement #MuseumsUnlocked

Thanks @rodkelly77, @sarahjkeenan, and @rosicarr78 and all those at @QMUL today for excellent papers and discussions RE experiences, narratives, and histories of repatriation, colonialism, British museums, and Enlightenment. Great to have met you all!
