Abstract Insurgents: Redefining Rebellion in Barbados opened at the Barbados Museum & Historical Society (BMHS) on 8 March 2019. Curated by Saamiya Cumberbatch of the Barbados Youth Development Council, Ronelle King of Life in Leggings: Caribbean Alliance Against Gender Based Violence, and Natalie McGuire-Batson of the BMHS, this exhibition involved the design and development of an inclusive space to highlight the Barbadian activists as proactive instigators of social change. The interactive exhibition analysed historical instances of resistance, from plantation rebellion to labour and social riots, as well as contemporary sites of activism for Barbadian civil rights, with a particular focus on women as leaders of freedom fighting. The exhibition was spurred by a desire among the communities of Life in Leggings: Caribbean Alliance Against Gender Based Violence and the Barbados Youth Development Council to address the stereotype that Barbadians are passive when it comes to acts of resistance. The majority of its content was contributed by activist communities, whether through their stories or artefacts, and displays were formatted to be accessible to visitors with all types of physical and learning abilities. Public participation was also key, with exhibition content including contributions from visitors in a variety of mediums, from written feedback to a device allowing visitors to video-log ideas around protest in Barbados. Assessing the project's approaches to exhibition design, community-led content, and visitor participation, this article interrogates how Insurgents: Redefining Rebellion in Barbados contributes to the development of multi-vocal museological frameworks in the Caribbean, and representationally repositions women as leaders working at the forefront of freedom fighting in Barbados.
