OxTalks will soon move to the new Halo platform and will become 'Oxford Events.' There will be a need for an OxTalks freeze. This was previously planned for Friday 14th November – a new date will be shared as soon as it is available (full details will be available on the Staff Gateway).
In the meantime, the OxTalks site will remain active and events will continue to be published.
If staff have any questions about the Oxford Events launch, please contact halo@digital.ox.ac.uk
Essential to the character of Oxford its cultural heritage – from dreaming spires to its beautiful quadrangles and magnificent halls. Yet that heritage is implicated in a history of colonialism and inequality. I propose to consider cultural heritage through the lens of social justice. This involves a candid reckoning with the historic injustice instantiated in dominant heritage narratives, but also how heritage might be understood in a way that contributes to social justice, understood in an expansive sense of furthering human flourishing.
