Watch Us Lead: In Conversation with Christopher Samuel

Join us at Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery while artist Christopher Samuel shines a light on unseen members of our communities, revealing the hidden experiences of Black and disabled people whose lives have gone unrecorded and successes uncelebrated, both historically and now. This conversation reunites Christopher with an interviewee, who took part in his Watch Us Lead project at Birmingham Museums.  They talk with Dr Ian Sergeant, Senior Curator (Global Majority Collections), about their lived experience as disabled people of colour, and how Christopher‘s new work for Birmingham’s collection addresses a significant gap in representation and reveals hidden stories.
