Description

From the fifteenth to the twentieth century, European countries established colonies all over the world. European colonial powers inflicted misery, inequality and racism on the peoples they had colonised while growing wealthier themselves. Eventually they relinquished their colonies voluntarily or were forced to give them up. Let’s reflect on how we address this topic in the museum.
