This book explores how a museum in Bristol, England, opened up to Black and African-Caribbean communities and shows how these encounters were shaped by different understandings of heritage practices and spaces. Using exploratory and ethnographic methods, the book first examines the practices of collaboration in the museum and the responses and receptions of external participants.
It then looks at alternative memory practices and spaces in the city and analyses the objective and subjective significance of Black, migrant and urban forms of memory and heritage that have been established outside official heritage institutions. It shows how rather than relying on institutions, these groups have often retreated into the urban space, creating their own heritage spaces and commemorative practices in specific neighbourhoods that are closely tied to specific locations, communities and memories.
Susanna Jorek received her doctorate from Leipzig University and focuses on Urban and Cultural Studies, with particular interest in questions of space and spatial production. Her recent project explores the motivations behind the consumption and use of cultural spaces.
