Talk:International Slavery Museum

Cynical name, likely to perpetuate ignorance, perhaps intentionally edit

Calling this museum the International Slavery Museum, when it is really just a museum about the Atlantic Slave Trade is misleading, and reinforces the museum's role in perpetuating fashionably ignorant attitudes about the global role and prevalence of slavery.

I agree, but sadly there is nothing we can do about it here. The idea that slavery only relates to the transatlantic slave trade is indeed an ignorant and moderately dangerous idea that not only ignores other instances of slavery in history but slavery perpetuated in this day and age. 195.213.86.78 (talk) 10:15, 18 March 2024 (UTC)Reply
