‘Standing in This Place: The Journey Continues’ follows Rachel Carter and The Legacy Makers, as they embark on a journey to create ‘Standing in This Place’, the UK’s first sculpture to recognise the transatlantic story of thousands of unnamed women whose labour built the East Midlands cotton textile industry during industrialisation. The sculpture, now displayed in the Broadmarsh area, depicts two women in period costume - an enslaved black woman working in the American cotton fields and a white woman working in the East Midlands’ textile mills.
