Bristol’s empty plinth becomes a site of Black public memory

← Terug naar het dashboard
📅 12 Juni 2020 📍 Verenigd Koninkrijk

After the Colston statue was removed, residents gathered around its empty plinth with placards and messages. The space became an improvised memorial and forum for debate about slavery, resistance and the city’s colonial wealth. Community archiving preserved these acts of remembrance and protest.
