▪️ Museums are not neutralThe senseless murder of George Floyd, the last of a harrowing list, reminds us that there is a long way to achieve racial equality —and the time to act is now. As highly trusted institutions, museums have the responsibility and duty to fight racial injustice and anti-black racism at all levels. We urge all museums to join us in keeping the momentum going.Read our statement and the one from Lonnie G. Bunch, Secretary of the Smithsonian and Co-Chair of ICOM US.
