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.

About 200 current & former @NYCMayor staffers wrote an open letter calling out his failing to quickly fire Daniel Pantaleo who killed #EricGarner & letting NYPD’s budget balloon even as crime dropped. They are calling to #DefundNYPD 🍵 #NYCBudgetJustice ow.ly/Ch6n50zYdHT

I gotta be honest the worst looting I've ever seen take place happened a few weeks ago when corporations collected over 500 billion dollars in stimulus money while everyone else was left with a $1200 dollar check and having to decide if they pay for food or rent..
