Global Voice Foundation’s Ally Organization Insight Share https://insightshare.org/ has been a part of working with the Maasai Warriors and Pitt Rivers Museum to bring into right relationship the artifacts collected and held in their keeping with the Maasai families.
Decolonising Cultural Spaces is a full-length documentary, follow link here: Maasai at Pitt Rivers Museum Oxford which is a part of the Living Cultures project coordinated by InsightShare, Oltoilo la Maa (Voice of the Maasai) and Pitt Rivers Museum at the University of Oxford in partnership with MAA Museum of Archaeology and Anthropology at the University of Cambridge. The documentary follows a delegation of seven Maasai representatives from Tanzania and Kenya spending two weeks in the UK working alongside British museums to decolonise cultural spaces by making them aware of their colonial history and how this can be addressed responsibly. June 27, 2023 the employees of Pitt Rivers and their families will join the Maasai in Narok, Kenya for a ceremony. Below is a picture of Nick Lunch, cofounder of Insight Share and the Maasai—some of them are from the region I’ve visited—who came to England to “listen” spiritually to the artifacts. It’s been an incredibly healing journey for them and those at Pitt Rivers.
