Thank you for your thoughtful article. Contrary to some comments I don’t find it hostile at all. It is reflective and gives important insight into your experience.

I appreciate that you had explained one piece to a woman there but agree it is odd that she assumed you would be able to explain it.

Maybe the museum reached out to primarily black schools in primarily black neighborhoods even if they weren’t there the day you went. It would be poor curatorship if they didn’t.
