@dickhammerfist @twin_muses @KCintoronto @myseumTO Governance models or organizational structures that embody or reflect colonial values - often around authority, values regarding expertise, and how the world is understood. (Consider, for example, if you think nature and culture are separate, or inseparable)
Because no city museum yet exists, there is an opportunity to build one that doesn't have to repair colonial legacies, but can build in a way that reflects the vibrancy of our city, offers @KCintoronto @myseumTO #tomuseum
