Abstract

Whilst听sociologies of British racism have always placed significant emphasis on the 1960s-1980s as foundational to the institutionalised landscape of racism in Britain today, these formative years have largely been overlooked within post-colonial critiques of the UK museum sector.听This paper will explore how territorial decolonisation, self-declared anti-racism, liberalism, technocratic expertise and museum ethics intersected with the increasing professionalisation of the sector. It will draw on archives of the UK Museum Ethnographers Group and the Museums Association to argue that these formative years structurally embedded inequalities, oppressions and entitlements within notions of best practice. It will argue that this continues to shape the limits within which decolonial work must engage today. It will focus in particular on how 鈥渂est practice鈥� is encased within a self-articulated ethical completeness, based on narrowly defined public responsibility and access. And how this continues to restrict the possibilities for more human futures for collections and belongings from the African continent through policy and process.
