English BHMF VI Edition OSTINATO PROGRAM

Amir - hospitality, museums, inclusion and human
reconnection - is an ongoing project started in September of
2018 (the name in Arabic means 'young prince') by a network
of local museums which aimed at proposing heritage
interpretation activities conducted by foreign citizens.
For the sixth edition of Black History Month Florence, Amir
is starting a collaboration rooted in their mission which is
to expand the understanding of heritage interpretation and
narratives within a museum’s collection.
AMIR and BHMF
Sunday 21 February - 4pm
A story about story-telling
Dudu Kuoate and Justin Randolph Thompson discuss
narrative and archive. There is a great need for all the
collections to be constantly reborn in the spirit of the griot.
The diversity of cultural perspectives widens the range
of entry points for the viewer and disrupts the sense of
immutability of written history. This dialogue will be framed
through an exchange of information with representatives of
AMIR and the BHMF awareness-raising team.
This event will be held in Italian on social channel of Amir
