Respect Due
by Museum of Colour
This is Respect Due. For this project we’ve invited UK creatives, journalists and heritage organisations to nominate an individual who’s had a big impact on their creative journey, someone they would like to pay public respect to. The nominees are people who have inspired and innovated in their field, people who have demanded change and paved the way for generations to come. Their achievements are celebrated with a portrait in the Museum of Colour, by the artists Grace Lee, Erin Tse and Naki Narh. Museum of Colour is a digital museum celebrating 250 years of creative achievement by People of Colour. In this audio series, you will hear from some of the nominees themselves… Museum of Colour is incubated by People's Palace Projects. Respect Due is supported by the National Lottery Heritage Fund and the Paul Hamlyn Foundation. Host
