It drives me nuts when I’m in a museum that has made a half-hearted attempt to thematically connected galleries or exhibits.

I think about how hesitant I was to become an artist, because I didn't see role models, and even to this day how hard it is for me sometimes to find peers who are women of color, because of how systematically they are pushed out.
