This exhibition looks at the significance of the civilisations that existed prior to British colonisation and the economic exploitation, environmental degradation, and cultural oppression that followed.
Visitors to the exhibition will find out about the legacies of the vast forced migration that happened as a result of enslavement and the slave trade, the environmental consequences of the exploitative economic system imposed by British colonialism, and the colonised peoples resistance against imperialism and racism.
Southern Voices is a Manchester based voluntary organisation, founded as the Southern Voices Project in 1990. The organisation was set up because the perspectives, knowledge, and presence of people from the Global South were missing from discourse in the UK on a wide variety of current and historical issues.
