@HelAdams @DLNET Interesting point. Decolonisation is specific to colonial power, imperialism, racism. Should it include work decentering from heteronormative, ableist, male dominated histories? #dlnetchat

@Isildaa @DLNET Interesting point / distinction. I guess part of the challenge is the rapid adoption and misappropriation of language. Would the work of Decentering Whiteness in a Museum by a member of a Native American community not be regarded as decolonial work? stephlittlebird.medium.com/decentering-wh…

Next question in today's #DLNETChat Q3 - How can you manage negative reactions to this strand of work (internally or externally, e.g. social media reactions)? We would love to hear from anybody - regardless of your experience - hit reply and don't forget the #DLNETChat hashtag

@HelAdams @DLNET #dlnetchat I think it is really important not to dilute what decolonising is and means. It is not the same as decentering the museum .

@DLNET A3 'Decolonising' in some cases has become a liberal slur, like ‘woke’. This weaponises the term, suggesting you're on one side or the other and the media and govt are not helping the polarisation. #DLNETChat

@Andy_makan #dlnetchat There is an element of trauma in the work of decolonisation. It can't always be enjoyable but it must always be positive

These networks make decolonisation fun because they involve working together and experiencing multiple perspectives. Decolonisation needs to be a joyful experience #DLNETChat

I just answered the door to the plumber then realised I was wearing an old jumper with ‘100% Gay’ blazoned across it in massive letters. Then he talked to me all nervously... as if I’d worn it on purpose to aggressively inform him.
