Episode 24: Institutional Bravery

from Museopunks Hosted by Museopunks

Increasingly, it feels like progressive museum practice is also political museum practice. So what does it mean for a museum to take a stand, and put social just at the heart of its work? In this episode, Suse talks with David Fleming, Director of National Museums Liverpool (NML) and President of the UK Museums Association, about the social impact of museum work, advocacy as a strategic objective, and what it means for a museum service to be openly political. Plus, news about some big changes to the podcast! And quiet snorts from a new baby softly echoing throughout the interview. Museopunks is presented by the American Alliance of Museums.
