Скачать или смотреть Decolonizing Museums Roundtable : Dr. Dan Hicks, Dr. Ruba Kana'an, and curator Chaédria LaBouvier

What does it mean to "decolonize museums"? How do museums perpetuate exclusion? How have museums grappled with past and present histories of colonial theft and cultural restitution? What must museums do to confront white supremacy and systemic racism? How can museums engage diverse communities and perspectives and better serve communities of color? Join us for a webinar featuring a panel of experts from academia and the museum world.
