We're on our team away day today and the ice-breaker was writing something you admire about the person next to you and I think that's such a wholesome and brilliant idea for a team that already knows each other (we didn't have to awkwardly present them; it's just for the person)

@museum_thinking @AAMDivCom @engagedmuseums @nomansclown @AAMers Also did anyone else get the occasional feeling that they were paying for really really nice signage? I mean, *we know* how much these things cost to fabricate...

“You can’t be it if you don’t see it.” Amazing calls to action from Keynote Speakers Ericka Huggins, Kevin Jennings, @FrankWaln @DLive87 and everyone at #AAM2018 to diversify & decolonize

Just because you raise the experiences of historically marginalized groups, doesn’t mean you erase the stories of those who are usually highlighted (paraphrased) #AAM2018 #AAMSMJ

Donovan Livingston takes the stage

- small truths of daily existence - think about it every time he walks through a museum.

Right up there with “well we’ve always done it this way” #AAM2018 https://t.co/oYGiPT6qT9

[Julia Kennedy 👻 @JuliaKennedy_]

“We can do it but have to be careful” is a phrase I’m pretty tired of hearing tbh #AAM2018

Essential to not take unpaid labor from community partners, that only continues the cycle of taking of advantage of people of color. #AAM2018 #AAMSMJ

@museumsamSTL @AAMers And @Anna_Cosner I've seen mikes available in every session for Q&A...maybe only some floors/rooms have them?
