- which, don't get me wrong, great that MN is getting Dr. Moore's writing in front of more eyes - this piece should be mandatory reading for the entire museum sector. But I encourage you to read it where it was originally published, on @incluseum incluseum.com/2020/06/10/car…
The Incluseum is dedicated to "advanc[ing] new ways of being a museum through dialogue, community building and collaborative practice related to inclusion in museums" & has been publishing on issues of the intersection of museums and race for years

TY everyone for signal boosting + supporting this call to BLM action. it means a lot. i want to open this space up to acknowledge + promote the people/orgs i cited in the text, as well as those who directly supported its drafting. pls RT, drop coin, etc. THREAD:
