Description

Reframing the Archive explores Panya Banjoko's personal engagement with museums over two decades, as the founder of Nottingham Black Archive. By highlighting the disparity in underrepresentation of Black people as curators of their own history, this collection of poems seeks to give space to submerged voices.

The poems here serve as an intentional social and political act of activism, providing a platform for political thought, discussion, and action. This powerful work challenges the status quo and offers a unique perspective on the importance of representation in our cultural heritage.
