Curator of Discomfort at the Hunterian Museum Zandra Yeaman, founder of the Edinburgh Caribbean Association Lisa Williams, and poet and anti-racist campaigner Shasta Ali, join the former Edinburgh Makar Hannah Lavery.
Disrupting the Narrative opened the festival with a theatrical performance, exploring Edinburgh's heritage from the perspective of its colonial past and uncovering stories of our city that haven't always been acknowledged. In this panel we look further at how art can contribute to the decolonisation of our heritage and the importance of doing so.
