One of the stops of our Bristol tour today, this is probably the only coat of arms you will see in Bristol - it belonged to those involved in the slave trade. There's a siren on one side and Father Chronos on the other.

Today we had a chance to see the statue of Edward Colston, after it was removed in 2020. At which we talked about memory in public spaces against memory in museums.

First session of the day! We discussed imperative issues such as what does decolonisation mean to you personally, and what does an ideal museum look like?
