Anti-Denialist Museum of Palestine
The Anti-Denialist Museum of Palestine is “an ongoing testing of our means of abolishing supremacist, carceral, capitalist, colonial institutions and their associated forms of genocidal-denialist culture, art, education.”
If the past is not dead and is what constitutes our contemporary condition and predicament, then repeating, retrieving, reconsidering, reclaiming, confronting all the histories of racial, patriarchal, imperial, colonial violence cannot be averted. How we can reclaim a cultural movement which not only confronts these shared histories but tries to weave them together, to be in dialogue, to plot courses or images of future which do not deny their existence and their immense relevance, not merely as truths, but truths which carry with them urgent responsibilities, this could form part of the exigency for the Anti-Denialist Museum of Palestine.
