A Black woman did this. She did Basquiat justice. Michael Stewart justice. Discovered art history. Was the first Black curator to curate a show at one of the most racist museums in the country. With one hand tied behind her back. And she still killed it.

I just ask that when you tell the story that you remember I am still finding my words to fully say my piece.

And I through all of this, put on an amazing show & made history baby. Pls do not let that be lost & defined by what they tried to do to me & my darling show.

Some of you have asked about my experience at the Guggenheim as the first Black curator, woman & creator of the Basquiat exhibition.
I'm still super proud of it. Working at the Guggenheim w/ Nancy Spector & the leadership was the most racist professional experience of my life.
