DESCRIPTION:On 6 May 2026\, Dan Hicks will be in conversation with Sadia 
 Habib for the Manchester leg of the book tour marking the release of the
  paperback edition of Dan's latest book\, 'Every Monument Will Fall: a s
 tory of remembering and forgetting'. \n\nWorking through the book's argu
 ments about the four As"" (Archaeology\, Anthropology\, Art and Architec
 ture) and ""the four Ms"" (monuments\, museums\, memory and militarism)\
 , the talk will examine questions of transparency and ethics in the ongo
 ing presence of untold hundreds of thousands of ancestral human remains 
 in legacy colonial museums - holding these lives and histories up agains
 t the commemoration of dead white colonisers and enslavers in statues an
 d other memorials.\n\nThe event will explore the book's call for new pub
 lic dialogue about what is kept\, and who is remembered\, from the past 
 — and for the democratic right of any society or community to reshape it
 s memory culture.\n\nThis is a collaborative event between Manchester Mu
 seum\, the MIE Anti-Racist Education Network and the Centre on the Dynam
 ics of Ethnicity (CoDE).
