We’re excited to be a sponsor for the latest exhibition at the Bernice Pauahi Bishop Museum titled “Ka ‘Ula Wena: Oceanic Red,” and we were honored to attend the opening night festivities. The Bishop Museum describes this original exhibit as one that “celebrates the distinctly unique reds of Oceania and the redness of our connection.” This isn’t your typical showcase, as it’s an extraordinary and unprecedented celebration of oceanic arts, people, and culture, that delves deep into the rich tapestry of generational history. This exhibit is currently open to the public and runs through January 12, 2025.

This is what I learned from several courses at the School of Museum Studies, University of Leicester #heritage and its concepts were constructed by the power or the majority. #museum is one of the powers. People believe that a museum is a valid knowledge institution. Hence, whatever the museum puts on display is a trustworthy statement. Museum play a significant role in declaring both tangible & intangible heritage. Thus, it is essential for a museum to have experts and professionals who are related to the museum, collections, and its mission. Museum needs to act ethically and professionally as public trust the institution as a knowledge centre. https://lnkd.in/gnfeDB-a

I understand the desire to reclaim Africa's history and heritage that was suppressed and distorted under colonial rule. However, dwelling on what was lost keeps us stuck in victimhood. Our rich, multidimensional #history persists through our elders, stories, traditions, #art, and collective spirit. Rather than ceding power to colonial institutions that house African artifacts, we must take pride in our living cultures. We must have the courage to shape the future we want, grounded in the #wisdom of our ancestors and values of #sustainability, #justice, and #community. Our diverse #cultures and connections remain strong foundations to build upon. The path forward is not lamenting what is gone but boldly writing a new chapter—one that harnesses Pan-African values to create prosperity equitably shared. #History informs but does not define us. By interpreting it judiciously and focusing on agency in the present, we can build the #Africa we want—one that achieves economic gains through cultural revitalization and social inclusion. This is a story of #resilience, #restoration and boundless potential. Our #future is unwritten, and ours to envision.

If you don't know your history you cannot write "your story ". Alkebulan, our history is written in tablets and animal skins and hidden in British museum of Art and at the Vatican volts. Why do they need our history hidden and some displayed and owned by those who stole it?....they know if they keep our history hidden we will never know who we are and we will keep writing our story from their perspective. #wakeupAfrica #Alkebulanarising

We visited the Smithsonian National Museum of African-American History today in Washington, DC and it was just fabulous. We highly recommend it to all Linked In members visiting DC. Visitors are able to enter the museum until 4:00 p.m. Passes are released at 8:00 a.m., for time slots up to 30 days out. Same-day passes are released beginning at 8:15 a.m. They are free to reserve. It’s a little more complicated than needed (eg you have to enter your email twice) so leave some time for filling it out via your cell phone on site! All groups (schools, families, educational groups, etc.) larger than nine must use the group reservation link. Important Conditions: The Smithsonian’s timed pass reservation system is for visitors’ personal use only, and Smithsonian timed passes are valid only for the stated visitor(s), guest(s), date, and time. Passes may not be sold or transferred. Reservations that violate these conditions may be cancelled. Once inside you are going to absolutely love it! The presentations are on six floors so just pick one to get the most out of your visit. We picked Concourse 3 : the earliest period of African-American history but other floors cover cultural developments, including music and film so do a little planning! #nationalmuseumofafricanamericanhistory
