MEMBER COMMENT | Margot Knight on “Smithsonian Institution to Shutter Diversity Offices” | And the government censorship of words—among its own agencies—begins. This round compliance is relatively simple—change one set of words for another and keep acting with the same values and intent. Round 2? Change the D to K. Censorship of works, exhibits and/or certain artists or themes. Or even a divestiture/ deaccessioning of offensive pieces of art. I hope there’s a dive bar in DC where federal curators and museum directors are coordinating a plan for that eventuality. |
