I am Zimbabwean-American and am linked to several ethnic groups. My museum would consist of:

1) The Mbira/Sanza/Kalimba (an instrument with metal keys found around Africa but the Zimbabwean variation is world-famous)

2) Stone Bird of Great Zimbabwe

3) Nguni Shield

4) A series of feather crowns from some of the indigenous ethnic groups

5) Rock Art of the San people

And if I had room for sixth And seventh one:

6) Maybe an exhibit on Zimbabwean revolutionary thought and literature.

7) Zimbabwe’s modern technological development and approach towards An industrial revolution.
