We went to the @BLMCardiff protest today. It was immensely powerful! Anti-Blackness must be challenged and eradicated from non-Black peoples minds, communities and the institutions they uphold. #blacklivesmatter #blackqueerlivesmatter

Day 48 of #MuseumsUnlocked is social justice and #activism

Thema #MuseumsUnlocked heddiw yw ymgyrchu a chyfiawnder cymdeithasol.
