Conversations with museum and cultural workers about how we work with our communities and the public. Created and hosted by @pablitasan. Produced by @gwenlfern.
@sciandculture @KayleighBinDC Great point! There are just fewer people to make noise on top of the emotional toll of the pandemic. Was also thinking about how workers may feel they are in precarious situation because of layoffs and don’t want to rock the boat.
How are you processing the Capitol insurrection of Jan 6? @KayleighBinDC discusses the responsibility of museums in the wake of white supremacist violence, plus effects violence + attacks on democracy have had on museum workers in the middle of a pandemic. https://t.co/hijVG0S4FX
Hey #Museum workers! Feeling strange in these strange times with little leadership for staff care? Check out @pablitasan & my conversation on @ConsciousPod about Museums, Democracy, and Staff Care. You're not alone. #MuseumsAreNotNeutral https://t.co/3pnFNbZGet
Happy MLK Day! Our video discussing Lawndale: A Living History with the @ChicagoMuseum is now live. Take a few moments to watch the video then explore the exhibition on our website to hear firsthand accounts of King in Chicago. https://t.co/6tdnYld8oc
Welcome new followers! I’m working with @gwenlfern to put the final touches on our next episode with @KayleighBinDC.
While many institutions are falling short in their calls for racial justice, the museum field has workers devoting their careers to this. Let’s listen to them.
Huge thanks to @pablitasan and @gwenlfern for allowing us to share our stories on @ConsciousPod. They were outstanding hosts - particularly given the technical glitches on our end......
Keep up the awesome work!!
Ahhhh I'm SO excited to be on the latest @ConsciousPod episode! Check it out to hear @JK_Museums and I talk about how we met and developed @LawndalePopUp. https://t.co/NaYlghcwdY
Calling out the personal risk and financial marginalization of the organizers who call for change in the field. " We are in an ashes moment"- @PorchiaMuseM
Ashes can be nourishing.
We are grateful to our essential staff who continue to go into the museums each day to keep our building and artwork safe. 💙
Thank you also to our Textile Arts Council who volunteered their time and materials to making masks for our essential staff.
@DrJ_Dubs I’m actually surprised people keep pointing out the humor because when I was editing I definitely was like “wow listen to me sniffle we are gonna bum everyone out”
Just listened to the latest episode of @consciouspod with @peacheslechat & @pablitasan. It was truly a great way to spend the morning while you attempt to assemble internet furniture. Humor and heaps of consideration on the current state. Feelings, Thoughts, and Wisdom. Listen.
