Royal Albert Memorial Museum
“Kalkidan is tapped into national and global thinking among people of colour, and helping Devon to catch up with anti-racist thought and activism in other parts of the world. Kalkidan’s contributions as an exhibition advisory panel member nudged me to update my knowledge and question my assumptions.
If you and your organisation want to take on the challenge of tackling racism, I recommend you put aside defensiveness and be prepared to listen to the perspectives that Kalkidan articulates so eloquently. It might be uncomfortable, but you’ll be working towards changes that are long overdue, and essential for our collective future.”
