The Socio-Political Reckoning Facing Museums with Andrew Plumley - Part 1

<p class="" data-pm-slice="1 1 []">This is the first in a two-part conversation series with Andrew Plumley, the current Head of Equity and Impact for <a href="https://www.arabellaadvisors.com">Arabella Advisors</a>, and former Senior Director of Equity and Culture at the <a href="https://www.aam-us.org">American Alliance of Museums</a>, where he oversaw both AAM's internal DEAI work, as well as the <a href= "https://www.aam-us.org/programs/facing-change1/">Facing Change</a> initiative, advancing museum board diversity and inclusion. In this episode, Victoria and Andrew discuss the biggest changes you’ve seen museums make in response to the socio-political reckoning of 2020, how to increase diversity in museum board leadership, and how arts organizations take a more active role in overcoming the discomfort Americans are often conditioned to feel when discussing the issue of race.</p>
