Book Launch: Decolonizing Knowledge: Looking Back, Moving Forward, edited by Radha D'Souza and Sunera Thobani (Bloomsbury Academic: London, 2025). Decolonising knowledge is becoming a buzz word inside and outside the academia. What does decolonising mean? How did intellectuals in the anti-colonial movements of the past conceptualise decolonisation? Are their ideas relevant for decolonisation today? What can we learn from past thinkers to move forward? Decolonizing Knowledge draws on intellectual histories of anti-colonial thinkers who developed their ideas of decolonization through practical engagement with struggles for freedom from colonialism. Reading works by J.P.S Uberoi, Frantz Fanon, Aimé Césaire, C.L.R. James and Andaiye, among others, interdisciplinary activist scholars reflect on the meaning of decolonization that emerged from anti-colonial struggles of the past and its relevance today. Decolonizing Knowledge is an intervention into contemporary debates on decolonizing curricula and universities, arguing that these calls need to be firmly engaged in wider social practices for justice, and that they can learn much from those who wrote on the topic amid the 20th century’s many struggles for freedom. “In a time when the practice of decoloniality is getting increasingly distracted by superficial propositions, neocolonial appropriations and banal jargon, this edited volume brings in fresh air of hope that there is still a possibility to revive the practical intentions with which decolonial movements were born” Professor Sayan Dey Roshini Kempadoo in conversation with the contributors to the volume Andy Higginbottom, Amanda Latimer, Tanroop Sandhu and Radha D’Souza. Roshini Kempadoo works as a photographer, media artist and scholar at the University of Westminster. Her artworks are ‘factual and fictional re-imaginings of everyday experiences, histories and memories by Caribbean persons and its diaspora’. Current/recent exhibitions and writing include: The 80s: Photographing Britain, Tate Britain, London, November – May 2025; Women in Revolt! Art and Activism in the UK 1970 – 1990, The Whitworth, Manchester, March – June 2025; The World that Belongs to Us, New Art Gallery, Walsall, November — June 2024; Fragments of Epic Memory, AGO, Toronto (2021); ‘Imagining Activism, Black, Gold, Dust,’ The Worldliness of Oil, 2021; the monograph Creole in the Archive: Imagery, Presence and Location of the Caribbean Figure, (2016).

May you go to this millennium, the Temple of Knowledge. This is definitely a reason to go to the UK, the British Museum, you see thousands of times more than you can think. Teacher Diana&#39;s 3-hour explanation was great, thanking her professionalism for letting us see the dead artifacts lively.

Westminster Abbey

美好的你看世界

After watching the changing of the guard ceremony at Buckingham Palace, we came to Westminster Abbey. There were a lot of people queuing up, and it took about an hour and a half to enter the church. There was an interpreter at the entrance, and you could choose Chinese. Follow the team and the interpreter will explain. My favorite is the Matisse-style painting window. The staff in the church are of high quality and good temperament, which makes people respect them.

I thought it was a special ride on the Ferris wheel, but the London Eye made me hit the face! When the capsule reached the highest point, I suddenly understood why the British love to chat. The Thames, Big Ben and the debris building look like they are shining in the sun, and it is really different every day. After landing, I found that the photos were all taken as glass reflections. Forget it, leave some regrets to be true.

Windsor Castle

The Queen&#39;s favorite palace is very luxurious, but it is not allowed to take pictures. It can only be taken outside. When entering, a photo was taken and was stopped by the staff. Knowing the life of the royal family, Windsor Castle is generally very quiet.
