The preparation and filming of in-depth interviews with people who can provide knowledge about the relationship between museums, the colonial past and its relevance today, is one of the methodological tools that we are developing as the program progresses.
Françoise Vergès

One of the first people to support and collaborate with (Tr)african(t)s when we began to develop it was the French political scientist Françoise Vergès, one of the most prominent voices in contemporary anti-colonial thought. From a feminist and anti-racist perspective, Vergès has published landmark works in the field we are interested in, such as La Mémoire enchaînée. Questions sur l’esclavage (2006); Fractures postcoloniales (2010) or Programme de désordre absolu. Décoloniser le musée (2023).

Here we share two fragments of the collective interview that Andrés Antebi, Jordi Tomàs and Alba Valenciano did to her, at the Museum of Ethnology and World Cultures (MuEC), in June 2023.
