This image captures the birth of @MuseumsandRace. The birth of MASS Action. Thanks to Elisabeth Callihan. In some form The Birth of the Visitors of Color project with @nikhiltri . Collaboration of @incluseum with @magmidd insisting on transformation and reflexivity in museums.

This picture captures what is arguably one of the most important moments in museum history. 2015. AAM. Rogue session that became the Museum Workers Speak movement. Thanks to Alyssa Greenburg and crew.
