To begin...how should museums display looted objects? #exhibitinglootedobjects
Thank you for visiting Looted Objects! I am Asha, a University of Manchester MA student undertaking a virtual work placement at National Museums Liverpool. My project is intended to gather insights on what people think about the presence of looted artworks in museum displays....
We wish headlines would stop saying "female" writers and say women writers, not only for the alliteration, which is real, but also because most women aren't interested in being defined solely based on their anatomical parts.
In a former life, when I thought you cd politely persuade people not to be racist Their response? "If you don't like it here, LEAVE". Which I'm yet to hear said to a white British person Racism is telling black people who have a critique of their own country, they should leave
Trans rights do NOT erase the concept of sex. We are a museum literally focused on genitals & we are trans inclusive. What's important is the DISTINCTION between sex & gender. Sex = biology, genitals, chromosomes, hormones, etc Gender = sociocultural aspects and identity 1/
The only reason that British white people think we are less racist than Americans is because our history syllabus is: 1066, Some Kings, SKIP THE RACIST BITS, The Big Wars We Won.
Feeling very grateful. A huge THANK YOU to @ace_national for awarding us Emergency funding and for @TNLUK players for your support. We feel very lucky to be able to continue working. Statement below. ❤️
interesting side note: we had to get special dispensation from the Charity Commission to register with "vagina" in our name.
share the cool gynae facts we post! share our website! share the fact that there is a vagina museum! and most of all right now, please please share our emergency crowdfunder to cover our costs until its safe to reopen our premises. virginmoneygiving.com/fund/vaginamus…
Thrilled to see @JaneHamlett from @RHULHistory discussing her fab research on pets in the home in today’s Guardian - tremendous stuff!! theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2…
For the love of CHRISTMAS can we please stop doing this? Can we end the parade of sneery men interviewing women who run extremely successful businesses saying “So, you sell lipsticks, is it? On the internet? And people, ah, buy them?”
WORD
This is the worst social media challenge in history and we demand that all of you stop it AT ONCE. Books are precious objects that deserve our respect. Now go sit in the corner and think about what you've done in the name of "content."
It's Friday tomorrow so before you go and have fun all weekend you should really check out this incredible zine!!

gal-dem.com/comprehensive-… a couple of months later and this is more relevant than ever
There is currently a blackout in Sudan -500 killed -723 injured -650 arrested -48 women raped -6 men raped -1000 missing No western media has reported on the massacre. Copy/paste this tweet or RT to spread awareness and stop it being suppressed #SudanMassacre #BlueforSudan
An excellent article! These are topics which certainly weren't covered enough in my secondary education. As a history student I am often struck at how little of our history is broadly known and understood for what it is and was. gal-dem.com/why-dont-we-le…
