Apply to be part of this important commission by @MayorofLondon to decolonise London through its statues, streets and public spaces
Far too many Londoners don’t see themselves or their histories reflected in our public spaces. I’m recruiting for my new commission that’ll review diversity and representation across our city’s public spaces, from our statues and memorials to our street and building names.
