re: The New Orleans Museum of Art "NOMA" now in cancel culture crosshairs

So I guess they can’t display any art from before 150 years ago because it’s raicis......

NOMA has all types of exhibits- all cultures. This can't be real.

People have to stop being shocked by this.

Notice that the demands ALWAYS follow the same system:

1) Decry and stop an organization’s attempts to promote diversity, tolerance, and equality
2) Disrupt the organizational structure by eliminating stakeholders in positions of power
3) Infiltrate the organization with approved members who will think first of the cause
4) Removal of dominant group majority; replace with subdominant group
5) Investigate the organization for further evidence of marginalization and oppression of the subdominant group (leading to this new group of employees internalizing hatred of the organization)
6) Forced equity based on subdominant group’s identity - discrimination of dominant group is acceptable
7) Redistribution of wealth from dominant group to subdominant group
8) Control of communication in order to prohibit dominant group from independent decisions and rhetoric
9) Demand for transparency for the purpose of finding further acts of oppression as the organization moves forward

Obviously the organization will die. It won’t make it. There’s no point in giving in to these demands or even acknowledging them. The purpose is to destroy the system.

Pronunciation issues aside, this must be awfully inconvenient to try and cram into a scantron name field, a check’s signature area, census form, or any number of other forms with name boxes.

So a bunch of rich liberal uppity art types are actually racist?

I’m shocked, I tell you, shocked!!!

Come again?

We demand the hiring of more Black curators! Hire and retain a cohort of Black and People of Color on the board of trustees and in leadership positions in the staff.

---

Are qualified black people applying for these positions?

quote:

---

We demand that NOMA create and equitably fund a permanent Diversity, Equity, Accessibility, and Inclusion department with at least two full-time staff.

---

Pay salary & benefits for 2 bs job titles

quote:

---

We demand transparency in institutional operations, acquisitions, and collections.

That’s not every employees business

And what is this dumb bitch going to do if they say no?

Where the hell are all the people with a backbone in this country?

Whatever happened to "we don't negotiate with terrorists"?

quote:

---

Responding to Dismantle NOMA, the museum apologized for “any hurt we have caused." It laid out a plan to add more diversity in its exhibits and throughout its organization.

Of course. The immediate reaction is always to apologize and cower in fear.
