- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 11 Jul, 2026 at 12:00 pm – Sat, 11 Jul, 2026 at 04:30 pm
- **Event Description**: Explore the impact of slavery and colonial violence on the land at this collaborative event with the International Slavery Museum.

Join us at the World Museum for an afternoon of discussions and encounters with historical objects focused on transatlantic slavery’s impact on the environment. Invited speakers will examine links between the creation of plantations in the Americas and current ecological crises. They will also explore how enslaved Africans and their descendants developed alternative ways to interact with the land and how some of these strategies of resilience can be used to promote healing today.

Participants in the session will be invited to join in conversations which will inform displays at Tate Liverpool and the new International Slavery Museum. The event is part of the International Slavery Museum "Call and Response" workshop series. These are free, interactive sessions that allow the public to hear responses and "respond" themselves to key questions in order to inform how the museum represents traumatic histories.

The session will include short presentations artist Imani Jacqueline Brown, and writer and artist Tao Leigh Goffe responding to the call “How does the land remember slavery?”. After this the public will be invited to respond and ask questions. Participants will then have the opportunity to engage in an interactive session with ISM curators looking at materials from the International Slavery Museum’s collection.

This event takes place in the Treasure House Theatre in the World Museum on William Brown Street, Liverpool. L3 8EN.

Tickets are free but booking is essential.

Biographies:

Imani Jacqueline Brown
Imani Jacqueline Brown is an artist, activist, and architectural researcher from New Orleans, based in London. Her work investigates the “continuum of extractivism,” which spans from settler-colonial genocide and slavery to fossil fuel production and climate change. As her work exposes the layers of violence and resistance that comprise the foundations of settler-colonial society, it opens space to imagine paths to ecological reparations. Among other things, Imani is a PhD candidate in Geography at Queen Mary, University of London.

Tao Leigh Goffe
London-born, New York-based writer and artist Tao Leigh Goffe is the founder/Executive Director of Dark Laboratory and authored a book by the same title. She is Associate Professor of environmental humanities and geology at the City University of New York. She has worked at universities including Harvard, Princeton, Cornell, Leiden, NYU, and Johns Hopkins. Her research is rooted in decolonial thought, literature, and theories of labour centring Black feminism’s engagements with Indigeneity and Asian diasporic racial formations. As an undergraduate at Princeton, she studied literature, molecular biology and dark room photography. Dr. Goffe earned her doctorate from Yale University.
