Introduction to Africanize

Africanize is a community driven initiative, led by Artist in Residence Sipho Eric Ndlovu in collaboration with We Don’t Settle and the University of Birmingham Research and Cultural Collections departments (RCC). The project aims to challenge the colonial-collector mindset and address the lasting effects of historical power imbalances using the African collection housed at the RCC, along with art and creativity as catalysts for meaningful dialogue and reflection.
