Institutional Racism in Museums

Hello everyone! In this episode, we examine the institutional racism present in larger and older museum institutions (Minneapolis Institute of Art, Chicago Art Museum, and Philadelphia Museum of Art, and the Cleveland Art Museum, for example). Have the Diversity and Inclusion initiatives by museums succeeded? Sarah outlines three points of contention which Museums might use to examine their internal systemic racism, and how they might combat it successfully. Step 1 - Museums should examine (publicly) where their funding originated, how that shaped the physical collection. Step 2 - examine the museum’s staff racial diversity. Step 3 - What percentage of the overall collection has been created by artists of color, and how are those works presented?
