"If we use the history well, it could help us to live well together and embrace a changing idea of ‘us’, in which everybody’s voice can be heard." – Sunder Katwala (@sundersays.bsky.social) #MigrationMuseum
We’re especially keen to connect in Lewisham, Tower Hamlets, the City, and nearby boroughs 🌍

A long, open trench running along a residential street with wooden reinforcements and pipes inside. The sidewalk is partially dug up, and piles of dirt and construction materials are scattered along the edge. A row of houses and trees line the street in the background.
This #StPatricksDay, we honour the perseverance, determination, and enduring impact of the Irish workers who built Britain.

Visited #Inside/OutsideAndAllInBetween phase 2 at the #MigrationMuseum, a powerful exploration of movement, identity, and belonging. As the museum closes its doors at this location end of March, I look forward to experiencing these powerful narratives elsewhere soon. ❤️
✨ Thrilled to share that All Our Stories: Migration and the Making of Britain has been featured as one of the biggest exhibitions to see this winter by @londonist.com earning a glowing ★★★★★ review!

In his speech, @sundersays.bsky.social asked: If we engage & educate people about the history of immigration, how much can we really expect to change how we talk & think about its future? #MigrationMuseum The lecture was chaired by journalist & author @rafaelbehr.bsky.social.
Massive thanks to Sunder and to chair Rafael Behr, to Eastern City for sponsoring and to Merchant Taylors' Company for the stunning venue.
