"Im always weary of museums with huge ‘ethnographic’ collections but was very surprised and happy with how the Weltmuseum displayed their collection. In each room were videos and accounts from people belonging to the originating communities. There were modern objects and collaborations from these groups to show people that they are very much still alive and connected to their pasts and these objects. There was also very clear and straightforward information about how the collections were attained and what the influence of colonialism has had on the places where everything came from. I was proud."
