Why this petition matters

Started by Charlene Ayres

The Victoria & Albert museum is noted as the world's leading museum of art, design and performance: based in London UK.

It has a number of collections showcasing design in other parts of the world; including China, Japan, Korea, Middle East, Europe, Britain.... etc

However there is no collection dedicated to Africa or black culture despite the significant contributions that the culture has made in these areas, additionally despite the fact that many artifacts held from Africa and the Caribbean are home to the V&A.  

Please sign this petition for the V&A to be more inclusive and add an African collection to the museum & really showcase black culture as much as they do asian and caucasian ethnicities.
